The strong sponsor support program allows Impossible Realities to give away game related prizes to many of it players, some just for playing. We also offer demos for sponsors and some are company representatives, such as Chaosium for Call of Cthulhu. We will be having cosplay showcases for special guests, and panels and crafting onsite for your cosplay interests. Sabrina is your go to person for anything cosplay!
Mission Statement
Impossible Realities is a smaller more intimate convention experience dedicated to supporting the gaming and cosplay community with sponsorship and support from local businesses. The convention offers a series of new and old games for all to try, and cosplay for all to enjoy. Volunteers run the many games. Prize support and Play-To-Win are a regular staple of the conventions as game companies have been generous and our gamers have usually received more than one main prize. Vendors and artists are welcome to setup of shop and sell their wares for a very reasonable charge for tables.
Company Profile
Impossible Realities was founded in 2001 by a core of gamers who wanted a fun, open gaming convention for gamers. The convention has been held in several locations around Saint John, New Brunswick. Whether it’s cosplay, traditional gaming or live action roleplaying, whether it’s board games or card games, the purpose of Impossible Realities is to delight gamers and cosplayers with an experience that rewards it’s attendees, and to give a meeting point for new players and old friends. As of 2017 and a new venue at the Interaction School of the Arts Theatre, cosplay is being introduced in earnest headed originally by Shelby Deluney, and now taken up by Sabrina Barrett Patey.
