    We regret this very important announcement for our gamers:

    Hotel RL requires Nuke-Con to enforce the No Outside Food rule.

     

    You can reserve your meals ahead of time here when you buy your badge, and then your Fuel Rod tickets will be ready in your Registration packet when you check in.

    NOTE: If you have already bought your badge, or if you have difficulties with the link, contact Registration.

    You have until September 16th, 2017 to reserve your Fuel Rods.

    More detail, including the specific Fuel Rod choices for each mealtime, can be found here.

    You’ll receive an email before the convention asking you to make your meal selections.

    Quantities are limited. Maintain your Nuke-lear Reaction and reserve your Fuel Rods now!
