The NADWCon Maskerade was held Saturday Evening,
September 5 in the Palm Ballroom of the Tempe Mission Palms Hotel.
The event was a great success, with 40 people on stage
as part of 31 costume units. Including the volunteer "Igors," fully one
person in twenty at the con was directly involved in the Maskerade.
That's a huge level of participation.
There are many fan-made videos from the event posted to YouTube. Just search
for NADWCon Maskerade.
There are even more fan-made photographs of costumed
persons at the convention posted to Flickr and other photo sharing
services. A little ritual magic with search engines will find these.
Bernard Pearson provided beautiful silver Discworld trophies for Best
in Show and Sir Terry's Choice.
