Upcoming Events

Nuke-Con is an all-volunteer organization dedicated to promoting the positive educational, social, and entertainment aspects in all types of gaming hobbies. Once a year we host a family-oriented three-day convention that attracts people from all over the country. We also run several one-day game days during the year.

Capital City Gaming Con is the Des Moines area board gaming convention. It is a weekend full of fun and games held annually.

We believe in bringing people together through board games. The more people we can bring into the hobby, the more vibrant our local gaming scene will become. Capital City Gaming Con is a one-stop shop for all things board games in the Des Moines Metro area. Meet with local vendors, attend events hosted by local businesses and influencers, and make new friends.

We strive to provide a welcoming atmosphere for you to sit down with friends, new or old, to play some great games!
