2016 Berlin, Germany
In 2016, we took Cardistry-Con overseas and held our third annual event in Berlin, Germany from July 8-10. We chose Berlin as a central meeting place for the lively cardistry scene throughout Europe. Again, we reached out to the cardistry community to crowdfund the event, this time through Kickstarter. We offered up twice as many registrations this year and sold out in minutes!
This year marked the premier of the Cardistry-Con Championship, an international competition awarding the best cardist in the world, along with a number of other award categories. Our 2016 event was extremely successful with over 100 cardists traveling to Germany from all over the world, and several hundred more watching us live online. We produced a short documentary of the event, which you may view below.
