Gen Con 2021 was held September 16–19, 2021 at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis. The move from the usual early-August slot to mid-September immediately marks it as the pandemic-era return year.

The 2021 edition stood apart from typical recent Gen Cons because it represented an in-person comeback shaped by lingering public-health constraints and altered travel patterns.
