The Tavern

Welcome to The Tavern

Welcome to The Tavern, home to thematic lounges where fans can come to relax, socialize, and refuel after a long day of adventure. Dive into a new RPG game or learn a new skill in The Tavern workshops, meet up with party members new and old, or grab a drink at Kraken’s Keep! There’s plenty to explore and do here at The Tavern!

Join new and returning partners such as Amtgard Northern Lights for activities like LARPing, crafts, and more!

The Kraken’s Keep

Bring your friends and your dice to our 21+ tavern! In this chamber you’ll find plenty of space to start a game of your choice, hangout with friends, and grab a pint at the bar. This is the ultimate spot to unwind from an adventurous weekend, just beware of any tentacles...

The Tavern Performers

Jacques ze Whipper

Guiness World Record-holder Jacques ze Whipper brings his nationally renowned act to The Tavern at Emerald City Comic Con. A mix of classic circus and standup comedy, it’s an act guaranteed to crack you up in more ways than one!

Ginger Slingshot

Well hello there fellow adventurers! My name is Ginger Slingshot - singer of songs, teller of tales, and lover of all things nerdy! Join me as we explore far away lands, encounter musical magic, dabble in mischievous mayhem, and ponder what it's like to be a dragon - all through song. We are going to have just the best time and even better tunes!

Earl the Bard

Traveling the land with his trusty hurdy-gurdy, Earl the Bard regales villagers and nobles alike with thrilling tales, spirited songs, and playful puppetry! Flanked by his (stuffed) pickpocket monkey and delightful dancing puppet, Earl the Bard is a sight to behold that you won't want to miss!

Friday Matinee Concert with Earl the Bard and Ginger Slingshot

Make sure to swing on by Summit Ballroom 2 between the hours of 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM to catch a back to back set featuring Ginger Slingshot and Earl the Bard for a merry olde time on Friday!
