Philcon 2024 Respiratory Illness Policy

Philcon will not require proof of vaccination for COVID-19 due to the elimination of
the means by which the US government and many states document that vaccinations were received.

Masking will be voluntary in most cases, however, certain events may be closed to unmasked attendees. Masks will be available at the registration desk.

Please stay home if you are ill. If you have preregistered and cannot attend due to illness, contact registration2024@philcon.org to have your membership transferred to the 2025 convention.

Philcon reserves the right to modify this policy in reaction to developments between now and the time of the convention.
