Update #1.1

Hello,

We are so excited to welcome you to Nexus 2026. Now that we are less than 3 months away from the event and the majority of tickets have been purchased, we are turning on ticket transfers! This is extremely important, as it will allow others on your order to receive future email communications from us and enter the signing lotteries (more information coming on schedules and signings).

In order to transfer the additional badges you may have purchased to those individuals, go to your Orders page, found within emails from Leap Conventions. Then proceed with the following steps:

• Click “Product Options” either on your orders page or below all QR codes.

• Select the tickets you would like to transfer, enter the recipients email, and then press “Transfer.” 

• You will then be prompted through your email to verify the transfer—this is a security feature to ensure product safety. 

• Once you’ve verified the transfer, the recipient will receive an email with their Dragonsteel Ticket!

Please note: add-ons are also available to transfer, but it is not required in order to receive email communications and sign up for signing lotteries. As long as you have access to the QR code, add-ons such as the book bundle or Nexus by Night will be scannable onsite. 

Additional note: This will NOT affect shipping. The original badge purchaser (i.e., the person receiving this email) will be in charge of updating the shipping address if necessary. The address on the original order is where all badges will be shipped. If you wish to update this, you may do so before November 1st.

Please transfer your tickets as soon as possible so that others on your orders may receive future updates! If you have already contacted our Customer Support team about correcting names/emails on badges, you still need to go through the transfer portal to completely change the owner.

Update #1

Greetings Worldhoppers!

As each day passes, we draw ever closer to Dragonsteel Nexus 2026! We wanted to give you some updates and let you know about a few of the things that have been happening behind the scenes. We have been working hard all year to make DSNX26 our best one yet!

IMPORTANT

Only initial lottery winners are receiving this email. We are working to remedy this with our event software for future emails. For now we ask that you please forward this to all members of your party OR direct them to our new Nexus Homepage, which will have all attendee updates, as well as our current guest list and sponsors. Bookmark the page for new updates such as the programming schedule, list of exhibitors, floor maps, and much more!

Dragonsteel Nexus Art Gallery

In addition to the other new things coming this year, we are going to have an art gallery! Beginner, amateur, and professional works of art will be on display throughout the event. So, if you’re an artist—or know an artist who would love to have their fantasy-themed art on display during Dragonsteel Nexus—please submit here. We can’t wait to see what you all come up with!

Please read the Terms and Conditions for art submissions before filling out the form. A Nexus badge is not required to submit. Submissions will close October 18th at 11:59PM MDT. Our amazing Creative team will then select pieces to be featured in the gallery, and selected artists will be notified in early November. 

Programming Schedule

Keep an eye out for an email this fall with the programming schedule. We’ve almost gotten all of the proverbial Sleepless Hoardlings gathered and organized, but a few finishing touches are needed before it’s ready to release. (Mostly the eyes and nose. Those are tricky!)

Nexus by Night

Planning for Nexus by Night continues, and we are throwing in our best after party ingredients to close out the event. For three days, your enthusiasm and investiture churn together, and between the good vibes and fond memories, something is born in the Cognitive Realm: a reflection of DSNX that we all bring to life for one night only. There are still tickets available, so come wrap up Nexus with us!

That’s all we have for now. But keep an eye on your email in the coming weeks for more updates!
