This will be our 2nd year for the ribbon game at Nekocon!

 

Badge ribbons are colorful, often shiny, strips of fabric with a phrase printed on them and an adhesive strip to attach it to your badge or to another ribbon.

 

An easy ice breaking way to interact with and meet new people. The goal is to find and collect as many ribbons as possible throughout the duration of the convention. This can be achieved by seeking out the “RIBBON DEALERS”, attending panels, photoshoots and meetups, or even just doing what you would normally do at con and unlocking a hidden achievement! 

 

There are a copy ways to be apart of the ribbon game at Nekocon 2023. You can be a Ribbon Gamer Helper, Order ribbons through our group order, help promo the ribbon game, bring your own ribbons, attend a ribbon game panel and meetups throughout the weekend.

Just give you all example on how pricing works through Marco Promos. The minimum of ribbons that can be order for the group rate of $0.18 per ribbon would based on an over all 2500+ ribbons order otherwise the rate would be $0.19 per ribbon. But you do not have to stick with just 100 ribbons you are welcome to order more.

 

To break the cost- the $0.18 x 100 ribbons with a one time $15 setup design fee per ribbon. The total cost would be $33.

These amounts are based on 1 ribbon design with the set up fee.
100 = $33
150 = $42
200 = $51
250 = $60
For those that are re ordering their ribbons from another order. You do not have to pay the $15 setup design fee per ribbon unless you are ordering a new ribbon for the first time.

Can’t wait to see everyone’s designs!
