Your pass supports our efforts AND supports the instant film community and various entities in the Bay Area, supports the resources necessary to put on PolaCon Bay Area (road closure, facilities rental, etc.), and ensures the future of PolaCon. Plus, you get a special poster and swag bag! Thank you for your support!
PolaCon Bay Area is a Rain Or Shine Event!
