The Dragon Con Report — Sun, 27 Jul 2025 09:00:00 -0400

Inside the Bunny Hutch with Danielle, Lisa & Gogo!

The latest episode of The Dragon Con Report is here — and this one’s hopping with excitement! We sit down with three fabulous guests: Danielle, Lisa, and Gogo, key voices behind one of Dragon Con’s most iconic Thursday night events — the Bunny Hutch party. You won’t want to miss this inside look into one of the Con’s most unique traditions.

From Humble Beginnings to Legendary Status

The Bunny Hutch didn’t start as a massive must-see event, but over the years, it’s grown in size, energy, and popularity. Our guests share the story of how the party began, how it evolved, and what it means to the Con community today. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes peek into how the organizers keep things fresh each year while honoring the fun, flirty roots of the event.

Costumes, Creativity, and Community

Of course, no Bunny Hutch conversation would be complete without diving into the costumes! We chat about the wide variety of looks on display — from clever pop culture mashups to classic glam interpretations. Danielle, Lisa, and Gogo discuss how inclusiveness, creativity and self-expression are celebrated at the event, and how it’s become a space for all types of cosplayers to shine.

Fundraising with Flair

There’s more to the Bunny Hutch than bunny ears and bold looks. Over the years, the team has worked hard to tie the party into Dragon Con’s charity efforts, using their platform to raise money and awareness for worthy causes. Learn how fashion meets philanthropy in one of the convention's most spirited gatherings.

Tune In and Join the Party

Whether you’re planning to strut your stuff at this year’s Hutch or just curious what it’s all about, this episode offers a perfect primer. Get ready to hear stories, tips, and memorable moments straight from the team who helps make the Bunny Hutch one of Dragon Con’s most anticipated traditions.

The Dragon Con Report — Mon, 27 May 2024 09:00:00 -0400

This month on the Dragon Con Report, we get a taste of what AmericasMart is like from the perspective of folks set up in the Comics and Pop Artist Alley on the 4th Floor. Our very own Mike Gordon has been setting up there for years and we're also joined by artist & writer Greg Burnham to discuss their experiences as a vendor at con.

AmericasMart, a key location within Dragon Con, becomes a bustling hub of activity during con. To give us an insider’s perspective, we have our very own Mike Gordon, a veteran vendor with years of experience setting up his booth and engaging with the con-goers. Mike shares his insights into the dynamic environment, the challenges and rewards of being a vendor, and the evolution of the artist alley over the years.

Joining Mike is the talented artist and writer, Greg Burnham, known for his distinctive artwork and engaging storytelling. Greg provides a fresh viewpoint on what it’s like to present and sell art in such a lively and competitive setting. Both Mike and Greg discuss the importance of networking with fellow artists, connecting with fans, and the overall impact of Dragon Con on their professional careers. They also offer tips and anecdotes about the preparation and effort that goes into making a successful appearance at the con.

Plus, we catch up on some of the latest con news on this month's edition of the Dragon Con Report!
