Your Virtual Access Pass to CrimeCon 2021 Austin

CrimeCon • May 14, 2021

Rest assured that you can still take part in the FULL slate of weekend events (even from home)!

It's crazy to think it's been two years since we've been able to gather in person. We are beyond grateful CrimeCon Austin is actually happening, June 4-6, and that we'll be able to see so many members of our community in person.

We also realize and accept that not everyone is ready or able to travel. So this year we are going to meet everyone where they are, even if that's still at home. Rest assured that you can still take part in the full slate of weekend events!

While nothing can replace the real connections made by like-minded people at an event like CrimeCon, the Virtual Access Passprovides the next best thing at a lower price. Additionally, if your true crime besties are all vaccinated or in your pandemic pod, you can gather together and join in on the same computer or device, sharing the cost — leaving you more for your wine budget!

The Virtual event will be just like the real thing, with multiple simultaneous stages and breakout rooms. You'll be able to participate in live chats alongside all the speakers, join Q&As, and even have meet and greets with speakers, podcasters, and world-class experts. You can still enjoy the whole weekend of outrageously cool, informative, fun, and emotional events, and, as always, help in any way we can to close cases, find the missing, and fight injustice.

There are too many amazing guests to list all of them, but the roster includes Kim Goldman, Chris Hansen, the "Don't F*ck With Cats" citizen detectives, Gina DeJesus, Meaghan Good, and Kerri Rawson. And of course we all love Podcast Row! Meet the hosts of popular shows "Die-alogue," "Voices for Justice," "True Crime All the Time," "True Crime Garage," and so many more! See the full guestlist here.


Here are the deets for the Virtual Access Pass options:

Standard: $159
Gives access to the full weekend of all CrimeCon Austin programming except for the VIP-only events. We're offering discounts on Standard virtual passes for students, teachers, law enforcement, healthcare workers, and military personnel. Just contact us for info before you book.

VIP: $399
Provides live access to the Gold VIP-only programming happening in Austin, including a deep-dive cold case workshop. In addition, our VIP ticket swag bag will be shipped right to your home! You'll also be assigned a dedicated VIP email concierge to assist with planning your session schedule, tech questions or issues, and anything else to help you craft your perfect virtual weekend experience. Any of you who enjoyed CrimeCon "House Arrest" will remember how fun the Mystery Mingle was. We're bringing it back for Austin! Other VIP pass holders and even some mystery guests will cycle through and pop up on your screen via webcam during a set time. It's not quite a meetup at the hotel bar, but it still offers you the chance to make new connections, chat with old friends, and maybe have a one-on-one with one of your big name heroes!

For the passionate true crime fan, it isn’t just about knowing what happened —it’s about understanding why. Every Monday TV One goes beyond the headlines to get to the WHY behind the crime. From police brutality to stories of Black love and revenge, TV One is committed to telling our stories, our way! “Payback” is all about vengeance, revealing the motives behind the crimes. “Fatal Attraction” explores when love’s embrace morphs into a deadly grip, while “Sins of The City” unmasks the crimes that have rocked cities across the country. “For My Man” tells the stories of women who committed crimes for love. And in “ATL Homicide,” Detectives David Quinn and Vince Velazquez share their most challenging cases, highlighting the profound human impact of crime.
