Debrief: Dragon Con 2024
Atlanta, GA – August 29 through September 2, 2024
Dragon Con 2024 is done and dusted, and like 2022, it was an experience of highs and lows.
Attendance was reported at 72,000, which is higher than the 65,000 from 2022 and was definitely felt in the heavier traffic. I still like the idea of an attendance cap around 70,000.
As usual, we did a lot of good charity work this year. The Georgia chapter of the Arthritis Foundation will be receiving at least $210,000. That’s lower than last year’s numbers, but still fantastic. The blood drive nearly set a record as well.
Dragon Con was also a getaway from reality that I really needed. I left the con physically exhausted but both creatively and emotionally energized.
On to the discussion!
