What is MNPolyCon’s 2024 Theme?
Differing Dynamics
Non-monogamy is a bold and courageous way to establish multiple romantic, intimate, and sexual connections with the consent of all parties involved. It allows you to break free from traditional relationship restrictions and live authentically on your terms. Each connection is unique and special, providing opportunities to discover and share excitement, fulfillment, and personal growth in a diverse range of sincere, satisfying, and empowering relationship dynamics. Don’t miss out on the chance to celebrate and learn from the diverse dynamics present within our community!
What if I Can’t Attend MNPolyCon?
The MNPolyCon Friday Night Social is a pre-conference event that is open to everyone, including MNPolyCon 2024 attendees and the greater community. It’s a great opportunity to mingle, enjoy some tacos, and grab a drink of your choice before the big day. Consider it as a warm-up for the conference… but without PowerPoint presentations!

Are there Scholarship Tickets Available?
MNPoly understands that not everyone has equal access to opportunities and we want to make our events more accessible. For this reason, we are offering Scholarship General Admission Tickets and Scholarship Lunches to support those who need assistance to attend, including people from marginalized communities and those facing economic or social difficulties.
MNPoly is offering five Scholarship General Admission Tickets to support access to education, content, networking, and socializing opportunities within the non-monogamous and related communities. We encourage individuals, businesses, organizations, and groups to sponsor* additional Scholarship General Admission Tickets and Scholarship Lunches. Together, we can work towards fostering a welcoming, diverse, and communal community!
If you would like to request a Scholarship Ticket, please contact mnpoly.education@gmail.com with your request.
