I haven't made it to the Fest in a couple years but the Museum was an epic location for the party!

Including ~2007 back when it was the Antique Radio Museum. If comicon-style cosplay is too controversial, how about optional libre software "costumes". For instance, people could wear all blue for KDE, or go a little more elaborate by making an xfce Thunar file manager viking costume. Tux penguin costumes might be fairly popular. A GNU (wildebeast) would take a bit more work. It would be made clear that it's entirely optional, & let's face it, many people who go to costume parties don't bother to come up with a costume. The Michigan GNU/Linux fest (I can't remember the name of this con) has been combining costumes & Libre Software for years at their con.
