Organizers of Ropecon 2022

Ropecon 2017 © Marko Saari

Ropecon is organised entirely by volunteers. Around 800 volunteers participate in the making of Ropecon each year by organizing program items and doing volunteer shifts. Throughout the year, the event is planned by conitea (connittee), which coordinates the production of the event and makes decisions about the theme, guests of honour and many other things. Ropecon’s main organizers guide and support conitea’s work. Each conite has their own area of responsibility. Contact information can be found here.
