BIPOCVampDay is a volunteer run event, so every year is different. We try to showcase an array of events and activities from every aspect of media – TTRPG, cosplay, arts, book\/literature, movies\/TV, music and more. Some of our events are virtual as that is how our event began – but we have also had local meetups, speakeasies and even galas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make sure to check this page closer to the event and see our 2026 schedule. Or RSVP here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
