America only turns 250 once.
What better way to seize the moment than by finding your tribe IRL?
ChudCon is part fraternal wilderness weekend, part low cortisol music festival, and part nostalgia-maxxing LAN party in your big brother's cool room with skull posters. Come with friends or come alone. Either way, you will not stay a stranger for long.
Lift, grapple, learn, and be sharpened.
Enjoy camaraderie and jolly-maxing with the boys in the great outdoors.
Somewhere out there are 100 other guys just like you.
They're looking for you, too.
Real photos of real chuds at ChudCon 2026. Don't ask us how we got them.
You'll leave tired, thoroughly white-pilled, and a few friends richer.
Arrival, camp setup, dinner, opening ceremony, live entertainment, and the first bonfire.
Competitions, lifting, grappling, guests, music, LAN parties, pond time, food, and fire until morale peaks.
Breakfast, closing ceremony, teardown, and the ride home with new stories.
