Dragon Con 2014
Aug 29–Sep 1, 2014
Dragon Con 2014 ran from August 29, 2014 to September 1, 2014 in Atlanta. This edition used six downtown venues including AmericasMart and drew about 62,000 attendees, showing how quickly Dragon Con was scaling from a regional fan gathering into a major downtown pop-culture convention.
The 2014 show reflected a convention that had grown far beyond its hotel-con roots into a sprawling city-center event, with cosplay, media tracks, gaming, and fan programming spread across multiple downtown buildings.
