Room Parties

Celebrate the Weekend After Hours

Room parties are a favorite part of the Archon weekend, giving fans a place to gather, socialize, laugh, relax, and keep the convention energy going after the daytime programming winds down.

Whether you are stopping by to visit friends, discover a fan group, promote an upcoming event, or simply enjoy the atmosphere, room parties are a fun way to experience the community side of Archon.

Where Room Parties Happen

Archon room parties are hosted at the DoubleTree by Hilton Collinsville, on the ground floor just down the hall from the main hall.

The courtyard and lobby areas have been recently updated and provide great spaces for socializing throughout the weekend.

Except for the courtyard, the public areas of the hotel’s first floor are non-smoking.

Want to Host a Room Party?

Archon and the DoubleTree Hotel offer a dedicated Room Party Reservation Block for attendees planning to host open room parties on Friday night, Saturday night, or both.

These rooms are available through a special process and are offered on a first-come, first-served basis.

Any remaining rooms in the block may be released two weeks prior to the convention.
