Planning to Hang Posters at CONvergence 2023?

At the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis, CONvergence members may hang family-friendly signage advertising parties, panels, performances, games, events and more in CONvergence event spaces, and in room party hallways on floors 3, 4, and 5.

CONvergence 2023 members may begin hanging posters at 1:00pm on Thursday, July 6, 2023.

Posters must be removed no later than Noon on Sunday unless specific permission is given for a later time. Members who hang posters are expected to also remove them.

DO NOT Hang Posters:

• At the Hyatt front desk, Hyatt Marketplace, Fireside Lounge, the Prairie Kitchen & Bar, or from railings overlooking any of these
• In stairwells, escalators, elevators, or elevator doors
• In the Skyway bridge connecting the Hyatt with the Millenium
• On storefronts or in businesses co-located with the Hyatt, including the Fedex, Vitali’s Cafe, and Salon Blu
• On glass surfaces
• On doors or door frames
• Anywhere outdoors, including The Grove, the Loring Greenway, or any parking ramp

DO Hang Posters:

• Virtually anywhere around CONvergence function space, as indicated on the maps
• In room party hallways on floors 3, 4, and 5
• On the walls of your own party room

If you are unsure whether you should hang your poster in a particular location, please find a CONvergence Operations volunteer or stop by The Bridge and ask!

   Remember to use the One True Tape! Anything affixed to the wall or other surfaces at the Hyatt Regency Hotel MUST be secured with low-tack blue painter’s tape. All brands and models of true blue tape are permitted.

Any posters found to be secured using other kinds of tape will be taken down without notice. Low-tack blue painter’s tape can be found at most hardware stores. If you run out of tape during the convention, stop by The Bridge—they may have some available.

Poster Hanging Blitz

Looking for an easy and fun way to volunteer on Thursday morning? Come to the Volunteers Table on the second floor and help hang up official CONvergence posters and signage!

When: Thursday at 11:00am
Where: Volunteers Table (2nd floor in Greenway J, right across from Registration Badge Pick-up)
What to bring: Yourself and any friends who want to help! Wear comfortable shoes. If you have a roll of blue tape, even better!

This is a great, fun opportunity to get some pre-con volunteer hours clocked before everything kicks off! There are SignUpGenius shifts for the Poster Hanging Blitz added to the Volunteers At Large tab if you would like to use that to plan your volunteering, but you can also just show up to help, too!

Remember, if you are planning to hang your own posters at CONvergence, you can begin doing that at 1:00pm on Thursday. The Poster Hanging Blitz on Thursday morning is for official CONvergence signage only.
