  <description>Dragon Con 2025 Debrief: Highlights, Hiccups, and Planning Ahead
Looking Back at Dragon Con 2025
Join Mike, Jen, and Channing as we sit down to reflect on Dragon Con 2025, sharing both the highlights and the hiccups from this year’s convention. From unforgettable events and standout moments to those small challenges every con-goer faces, we give an honest look back at our experiences.
Planning Ahead for Dragon Con 2026
But we’re not just looking back—we’re already planning ahead! We talk about prepping for Dragon Con 2026, what to expect when hotel booking season opens, and strategies to make sure you’re ready when reservations go live. Plus, we cover how attendees can rate their con experience through the official app and why your feedback matters for shaping future cons.
The Dragon Con Report is a part of the ESO Podcast Network, Producer Jen “Lil’ Bit” Schleusner, Executive Producer Mike Faber
