Trivia
- Irishgamingwiki.com stated: "Itzacon I was brought forth to much cheering and a lot of happy and soon exhausted gamers in March 2005. This trend was continued by Itzacon II in 2006, that time with added Pirates. It has been claimed that Itzacon III had a Prisoner theme, but when asked, it denied it had a theme, it refused to be themed or filed or any of that kind of thing. Itzacon IV had a Victorian feel to it, but a gentleman never comments on these things. Itzacon V revolted against the previous regimes while still adhering to their remit of great games and fun for all. Itzacon VI seemed to embrace an Art Deco feel, or so they claim. Itzacon VII explored the Yucatan with the Itza people and those beyond. Itzacon VIII wandered through the Spindly Woods and fought the Fizzlers by the Heights. Itzacon IX went wandering in the lost world beneath a broken and yellowing moon, Itzacon X whizzed through the timelines while Itzacon XI peered at us from behind silvered and cracked glass. In 2016 Itzacon XII threw open the gates of Hell, to find who knows what? As for Itzacon XIII ? The rest of Itzacon's second decade is unwritten but the future is bright..."
- Itzacon is one of the only conventions to run at least one RPG per convention through Irish, usually scheduled as "Eachtraí Gaeilge".
