Attention all scribes and tale-weavers of the #defcon community - the #defcon33 Short Story Contest is open for business! It takes place entirely online - you can find the details at https://forum.defcon.org/node/252691.

The theme is #accesseverywhere. In addition to literary glory, you can also win free human badges for #dc33.

let's GO.

Spring has sprung. Birds are singing, flower buds are budding and the #DEFCON33 website is open for business. Bookmark https://defcon.org/html/defcon-33/dc-33-index.html for all the latest info on everything #DC33. August will be here before you know it and you’ll want to be in the loop as things develop.

Stay in touch, and we’ll see you at #defcon.

Good news, everyone! We’ve already got some discounted room blocks you can use to lock down your lodgings for #DEFCON33.

DC33 doesn’t kick off until August 7, 2025, but that’s no reason to lollygag. If you’re a high-octane go-getter you already know how good it feels to get those To-Do items checked off early. If not, this is far enough ahead to forget you booked and give yourself a nice surprise when there’s one less thing to do at crunch time.

You can book at the Sahara

now and get the DC33 ball rolling. We’ll keep you posted as additional options become available.

We’re already 2 months closer to the next #DEFCON. Be prepared.
