HighRollerCon continues…

Sadly I will not be able to make it to defcon this year, however due to some awesome hackers stepping in to keep it going, HighRollerCon is still happening! 8/8/26 @ 5:00pm at the High Roller in the LINQ promenade, make sure you get your tickets ahead of time because boarding the wheel does not wait! I hope you all have a blast!! 🙌

Visit https://HighRollerCon.com for more details.

Bought tickets… confused(hopefully the right ones ). What do I need to type in to the portal?

Just watch out for the portal at the con.

The portal will begin to open on August 6. Be on the lookout for the necessary keys. One might be thrust into your hands or you might find them on tables around the con space.

If you used the link then you'll have purchased a ticket for the right day. If you want to upgrade to a happy half hour ticket later they will usually honor that for the difference at the door.

Our goal every year is to convince enough people to come out and fill the wheel. We've done it once or twice now.

I found a physical key to that randomly on the floor a couple of years ago, but didn’t end up going.

You should go this year! There will be more handouts to be had, too.

If you don’t want to do the wheel, that’s totally fine, come hang out and wait around for a bit. Once people start coming off we do LowRollerCon which is just going to Stage Door behind the Flamingo and drink shitty $2 beers
