No comments 0

Another Cardistry-Con has come and gone, and this year's event was the biggest global cardistry event in history. Attendance grew by 100% compared to the previous year in Berlin. A strong crowd of more than 300 cardists attended cardistry-con in downtown Los Angeles within the Arts District at The Springs. In addition, new cardistry decks were introduced over the Con weekend. Here's what caught our attention (Image above from @cardisfornia_apparel):

Only 200 were produced specifically for attendees of Cardistry-Con.

A unique deck of cards with new form and design.

Organised by Dan and Dave, The Virts and Dealersgrip. Cardistry-Con is a three-day conference devoted to the mesmerising art of cardistry. Thanks to James Milaras, from Joker and the Thief, we are able to share some images of the Cardistry-Con with you.


On July 8, cardists from all over the world gather and explore the limitless expressive potential of an ordinary deck of playing cards… and have an absolute blast together! The event includes talks, exclusive video screenings, live performances and Q&As.
