Require Masks at Twitch Con NA While I understand that currently the CDC is not requiring masks at events, I feel the staff of Twitch and the goers of Twitch Con NA have a duty to ensure con-goers are safe.
As it stands on the CDC COVID tracker website (https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#datatracker-home) you can see the fluctuations of the virus and the numbers are on an upward incline already and those numbers are only until January 6th.
From what the US itself is experiencing, much less the entire world taking into account international travelers who would be coming, a mask mandate for the convention should be…

Move TwitchCon NA Out of Las Vegas Considering the conversations happening both in-person among attendees and online, it's safe to say a large group of attendees consider that Las Vegas wasn't a great fit as a TwitchCon host city.
TwitchCon is about community and coming together. Except in Las Vegas, due to traffic, large distances and road closures, as well as casinos, shows and other entertainment options, going to the expo floor was more of a hassle and afterthought than the main event.
By moving TwitchCon to a more walkable city, like San Diego [the previous-host city], people spend less time, energy as well as money in…

Require Masks & Clean Air at all conventions. After the surge of TwitchCon EU streamers and viewers alike getting ill with Covid and other airborne illnesses like Norovirus at this past TwitchCon, Twitch has a responsibility to protect the health and livelihoods of their congoers. This is a continuing trend of people getting ill & permanently disabled by SARS-Cov-2 at Twitchcon and to prevent this from happening again, and to protect Twitch from being held liable, a new policy needs to be put into place.
Health institutes such as the CDC have confirmed what scientists and immunocompromised folks have been saying for years, that Covid can surge throughout…

Twitch Con EU Should Be 3 Days I've never understood why Twitch Con EU is only two days long. In the beginning, I can see how they might have been testing the waters to see how many people would attend. However, Twitch Con EU has been around for several years now and has attracted a significant number of attendees.
On the other hand, Twitch Con NA has three days and this year even includes a block party on Saturday night, after the convention has ended. Last year, they had a famous rapper perform as well. Why is Twitch Con EU being treated so differently? It feels unfair…

TwitchCon Accessibility Booth / Point of Contact With TwitchCon there comes a lot of disabled folks needing a point of contact to ask accessibility questions or get more info on whether or not aspects of the con are safe for mobility or other types of disabilities.
My request is to have an accessibility booth right up front when you enter the con that has a designated team or point of contact there to answer specific accessibility questions.
This comes after attending every TwitchCon NA since 2017 and always having to constantly struggle to find a staff that’s willing to answer my accessibility questions or even try to…

Add local time to meetups On meetup.twitch.tv it shows meetup date and time in your (computer's) time zone.
Organizers will often add the local time in the meetup description or the event image. But not every organizer does.
It would be great if in addition to your time zone's time the site would also show the local time of wherever the meetup happens natively. This would make it easier to plan and attend meetups when you travel across time zones.

Have TwitchCon in Chicago! It would be amazing if we tried out Chicago for TwitchCon! It's a really fun city and so close to the middle that WAY more creators AND viewers would be able and WILLING to attend! It's far more affordable than California & I really believe Twitch users on the East Coast & even the South would appreciate it!
I just think it would really be in Twitch's best interest to at least try it out once! I'm sure they'd be super surprised at the turnout and excitement!

more networking speed dating I recently attended a fantastic workshop called something like "Networking Speed Dating" at the convention. It was an excellent way for streamers to connect, collaborate, and exchange advice. However, there was only one session on Saturday, which I felt was insufficient given its success and popularity.
I strongly recommend scheduling at least three of these workshops each day throughout the convention. Additionally, it would be beneficial to ensure that participants understand the workshop's purpose beforehand. Some attendees were not clear on its focus, leading to a less productive experience for others.
Thank you for considering these suggestions to enhance the…

Announce the dates of TwitchCon prior to the end of 2023 I think as it stands, the announcement of dates in February is very short notice, particularly for those who work and need to get time off. By the time February comes around and the dates are usually announced - it's extremely difficult to get time off, particularly in July throughout the summer holidays.
I would even consider moving Twitchcon to June. With the age limit for the event being 16+ having it during the school holidays results in increased costs, difficulty in getting time off and a much busier area around the venue. A month earlier would still allow for…

Do NOT have a mask mandate It’s been 4 years now. People have taken every shot available and still have gotten COVID. People who religiously mask up with N95s have still gotten COVID. Howard Stern, who hid in his house for 4 years finally got COVID. If your immune system is compromised, you should heed your doctors advice to stay away from large gatherings. Personal safety is personal responsibility. If you want to “feel” safe, you can make the choice to mask up.

Schedule it during a typical break like summer or spring It should be scheduled at a time when most people naturally have time off so more people can go. Putting it so far from the east coast and in the fall make it kinda put the east coast college crowd on extreme difficulty to try and go.

Please be more thorough and educate/inform your staff Hi, my first and only twitchcon was this past year in vegas 2023, and while it was very fun, too many parts were putting people at risk or leading them on wild goose chases.
I would greatly appreciate if you would be willing to read this post about my experiences in its entirety. ♥
.
To start off, there was actively no seating or shade provided to attendees during badge pickup on thursday (and from what i saw, also on the actual convention days) - this is a problem because I was nearly having an emergency because I was overheating,…4 votes -
Bring twitchcon EU to the uk!! Bring twitchcon EU to the uk. I think it would be good for uk streamers because it would be easier to get to rather than flying all the way to another country for it and I would recommend having the event at either Birmingham, London, Liverpool or Manchester because they are some of the biggest cities in the uk and they are loads of big venues to have the event and generally it will be good for fans in the uk because they will have the chance to go and meet their favourites streamers and meet other people and make…

TwitchCon Denver? I want to propose Denver, CO, as a site for TwitchCon.
The Colorado Convention Center would be an ideal location. If timely booked, Twitch would be able to take full advantage of its space and other amenities and features.
Attendees would enjoy access to many restaurants and services within the Denver metro area. Some are accessible through the Regional Transportation District's (RTD) bus and light rail system. Attendees may also be interested in accessing landmarks within the state, such as the Garden of the Gods park, the Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and Rocky Mountain National Park.
In recent years, Denver has…

Bring back the "Glitch Emote Snapback" About 4 years ago, I bought a Glitch Emote Snapback (ASIN: B074LZDJ23) on Amazon DE. Since then, it has been my go-to cap for everyday things.
However, the colors are slowly fading, and I'd like to buy this cap again, but it has sadly been discontinued by Twitch.Additionally, the new models (in this case, the Offset Cap (ASIN: B08CXFPKRR)) are uncomfortably tight and cannot be adjusted to the same size.
Please return the old model to the EU Loot Cave.3 votes -
TwitchCon MNL (An Open Letter) Mabuhay!
This is Midgalicis on Twitch, and I would like to know your Marketing/Communications/Partnerships Manager /Events Staff (APAC).
We, the Twitch Streamers from the Philippines, would like to make Twitch Con MNL happen. We are passionate and eager to know the other Twitch Streamers from the Philippines & South East Asia. Our eagerness to make the event happen when CONQuest 2023 didn't live up to our expectations.
There should be Artist Alleys, TAGAlleys (a Wordplay for Tagalog, a common Dialect in the Philippines, and Triple A Games, another term for Battle Royale Games), DEIty's Realm (or Advocacy Area for Diversity,…

Improved security and safety With all the recent shooting incidents in the US, please consider improving the security and safety around long lines that form near entrances/exits where people are most vulnerable. I think one way we can improve the safety of everyone is to use some sort of marker in lines (similar to the markers used in lines during Covid) that create spacing between people. It will help prevent crowding and pileups in the event that people need to disperse quickly. I also suggest placing security and law enforcement personnel near lines to monitor for suspicious activity. Thank you.

East Coast TwitchCon Make Twitchcon in the east coast. Many people cant aford to get a plane ticket or drive to either the west coast or fly to the EU, myself being one of them. and it leaves out many people who may never get to meet their favorite creators or experience the con itself.
This would be great and many, including myself, would very much aprciate it!
