DunDraCon
DunDraCon is a four-day gaming convention run by Dundracon Inc.[1] It is held each Presidents' Day weekend in San Ramon, California, with open registration and the first games starting on Friday morning, concluding on Monday evening. The first DunDraCon was in 1976; the organization incorporated in 1980.[2]
History
The first DunDraCon was in 1976, about ten years after the first informal meeting of Gen Con. Nevertheless, DunDraCon is one of the oldest roleplaying game conventions worldwide, and is the longest continuously running gaming convention on the West Coast of the United States.[1][2] Program books are archived from DunDraCon 3 to the most recent convention (DunDraCon 43 as of 2019).
