Introducing The Session Basecamp
We have all felt overwhelmed by the idea of coming to a magic convention. What if you don’t know anyone? Are people friendly? Who will you chat with? Who will you have dinner with? What if you’re nervous or anxious?
This year, we’re proud to announce new offerings designed to help first-timers, or those who want to make more friends feel as welcome as our The Session veterans.
We’re calling it Basecamp. A safe place you can return to any time you need.
Welcome Event
After the first session, all first-timers are invited to a breakout room where you’ll get to meet your hosts
Josh and Andi and your other friends-to-be. We’ll make sure you’re welcomed properly and get to meet each other.
Friendships could be formed here that will last you a lifetime. We can’t wait to meet you.
Basecamp Tables
We know how it can feel awkward for a first-timer or magic beginner trying to join a jam session already in
progress. Or that the idea of eating alone can feel intimidating. So, this year, we’re reserving special tables
in the convention area exclusively as your “Basecamp”.
These tables will be marked with table tents and will often have hosts present to help people get to know each
other, to encourage us all to help each other with moves, or tricks, and to just generally have the best of
times. Whether you’re working on a new trick or just want to see some cool magic, these tables will be a great
place for Basecampers to gather.
Special Badges
A special pin will let everyone know you are a Basecamper. Beyond being an awesome collectible, this will help
The Session veterans better welcome Basecampers and ensure you experience the very best of The Session.
The Session is undoubtedly one of the best weekends of the year for magicians and mentalists. We don’t want you to
miss anything. So we’re doing everything we can to make sure you feel welcomed and have an incredible
experience.
