Can't make it.

 

Two things must happen before I am eligible to return to the 'Con: A summer convention and it must be in Toronto.

 

I couldn't care less about a Las Vegas Con.

OFFICIAL RUSHCON 12 ANNOUNCEMENT

 

AT LAST! The Clockwork Angels tour dates have been officially announced!

 

Now that's done, we are excited to tell you that our 12th annual RushCon will be held in Toronto on October 12-14, 2012, to coincide with the Rush concert on October 14th.

 

It's a very exciting time to be a Rush fan! Celebrate with three days of games, events, guest speakers, our memorabilia charity auction and much more, wrapped up with seeing Rush live in their home town!

 

Rush concert pre-sale tickets go on sale soon, so now is the time to plan your pilgrimage to Toronto. See Rush in YYZ, meet some awesome fans, and be surrounded by those who share your love of this magical band. We really hope to see you there!

 

We will be posting event details and registration details over the next couple weeks. Stay tuned!

 

(Note: All Rush concert tickets are the responsibility of each attendee and are not included in any RushCon registration package.)

I'd love to go, but I'll be beginning my master's thesis, hopefully, so I know I won't be able to go.

 

Summers work best for me.

I've never been to Canada before, though I live just across the river. I would love to be there, but the passport fee is a bit steep for me at this time. Anyone care to share past experiences? I might be convinced yet...

If your state has enhanced driver's licences for entering Canada, and you're close to needing to renew your license anyway, that can be a little cheaper way to go.

I and Mr. 1 of the 7 will be there! We've even scrapped the Philly show so we can attend the whole con - it'll be our first! icon_alienjig.gif

No Philly? Sorry for that but glad we'll get to meet in Toronto (meet again that is, since we'll meet in Manchester)

yeah, that was a great one! I remember the trip to St. Catherine's and eating a restaurant where the owner knew Neil as he was growing up.

 

RushCon 6 is definitely one of my favorites. RushCon 2 is probably my favorite in general. All the celebrating going on with the arrival of Vapor Trails and the tour. Great stuff!

I see RushCon 12 is now updated. Question though - what's up with the group rate offer for the hotel? $119.. you can book a room for $116 on the Marriott site right now. wacko.gif

 

edit - OK I see that it is not a prepay room. That does help! Thanks RushCon!
