VIRTUAL TGIF/F

This is an online fan convention over a weekend. Timing is primarily designed for North American time zones, and we hope that our friends around the world will also be able to pop in. (As we grow, we hope to accommodate more time zones!)

We’ll open our Discord on Friday to kick off the party with socializing opportunities with new friends. Then, Saturday and Sunday, programming runs all day and into the evening. We’ll hold discussion panels and fun group events to address a wide range of interests and interaction styles. You can design your weekend experience, whether you’re popping in on work breaks or camped out online for the whole thing.

We want this virtual con to be exciting for you, our attendees, so we will build a schedule using your ideas. Our attendees nominate and vote on panel topics to create a con they want to attend. TGIF/F is built with you—the femslash fan—in mind, and we want you to be a part of shaping what happens there.

This provides a more intimate experience for making friends, building relationships, and taking part in conversations—not just listening to other people have them. The virtual con will be its own unique experience, not a carbon copy of the in-person con. We’re excited to expand into additional events that work best in an online format and try new things!

For many of us attending the con, this is where we feel safe to truly be ourselves. Con staff works hard to cultivate a space and con culture that welcomes and embraces all of our attendees, celebrating our diversity and individuality. By keeping the event small, we really get to know each other—and we want to know you!‍ ‍

TGIF/F is a special place, and we love having new folks join our community. Whether it’s your first time or your tenth, you’re one of us from the moment you enter the space. We’re excited to get to know new folks who can join us for this online experience who maybe can’t attend the in-person con.
