About No Brand Con
No Brand Con bills itself as Wisconsin's longest-running anime convention, first held in 2002. It is a volunteer-driven nonprofit run by No Brand Con Inc., with organizational meetings open to the public. No Brand Con XXII is set for April 16–18, 2027, at the Lismore Hotel in Eau Claire.
Preregistration drops the weekend badge from $50 to $40, and a limited No Brand Hero Sponsor tier adds perks such as priority seating at guest panels and the cosplay contest.
Firearms and ammunition are prohibited and airsoft weapons are not allowed in convention space. Prop guns must show an orange tip and be peace-bonded, and Nerf blasters have extra restrictions. Lismore guests get a parking discount at the nearby garage.
