Visit the Pacific Northwest at one of its most beautiful times of the year. Nestled in the Puget Sound, with a 30-minute ferry ride to Seattle, the end of the rainy season is the perfect environment for Krampus! In its inaugural year, Krampus America brings together Krampus celebrities, performers, organizers, costume makers, educators, crafters, designers, entertainers, vendors, businesses, and enthusiasts for a weekend of education, training, information, arts, culture, and fun!

This year’s convention will include an agenda of notable speakers, vendors, seminars, education, networking, costuming, and demonstrations by guests from all over the world.

Lodging discount codes at The Fairfield Inn and Hampton Inn will soon be published, allowing you to book your hotel right in the heart of downtown Bremerton and in the middle of all the festivities.
