Event Information
Welcome to the CommandFest Toronto: Pre-Fest Celebration Event!
This pre-event sneak peek is the first of its kind to offer an authentic CommandFest experience for attendees!
Obviously it wouldn't be CommandFest unless we played some Commander. So make sure you bring a commander deck of some sort, that being said I'm sure folks will have extras to lend out if it's a format you don't normally play.
Come prepared to learn about the surprise activations happening over the weekend and take part in some exciting workshops around creating a fun and immersive experience for CommandFest attendees.
Food and drink will be provided.
While +1s are welcome it’s expected they’ll take part in the activities and learn a little about what makes a great event.
All attendees will need a judge apps account to apply and for tracking purposes.
Schedule:
6-7 PM - Social Activities and welcome.
7:00 PM - Catered Meal Provided
7:30 Onwards: Workshops!
Mock Chaos Commander Tournament Presented By Kelly Ackerman
Dwarves Before Dawn Presented By Tobias Vyseri
Questomer Service Presented By Chris Hrichishen
The Dragon’s Questions with Tobias Vyseri and McKenah Sobering
Please apply asap, it'll help us know how many folks to expect and how much food and prizing we'll need!
For any questions please reach out to Chris Hrichishen or McKenah Sobering!
Can't wait to see you all in Toronto!
