'''Shibaricon''' is an annual [[Chicagoland]] [[Memorial Day]] [[weekend]] [[Convention (meeting)|convention]] that bills itself as the "Premier annual educational rope bondage conference". The name comes from ''[[shibari]]'', a term for [[Japan]]ese bondage, and ''con'', the [[suffix]] commonly used to denote a [[conference]] or [[Convention (meeting)|convention]].

The first Shibaricon was held at the [[Holiday Inn]] O'Hare International in [[Chicago]], [[May 28]]-31, [[2004]]. The event drew almost 300 attendees, instructors, and vendors. Over 80 classes and workshops were held covering Japanese and western rope [[bondage (BDSM)|bondage]] techniques and related [[BDSM]] practices such as [[mummification (bondage)|mummification]], [[impact play|flogging]], [[play piercing]], and [[fetish photographer|bondage photography]]. Evening entertainment included a [[fetish clothing|fetish]] [[fashion show]], a showing of [[Dominatrix Waitrix]], a [[dominatrix]]-[[comedian]], a bondage competition, and three [[play party (BDSM)|play parties]].

Shibaricon [[2005]] was held [[May 27]]-30, at the Holiday Inn Select in [[Naperville, Illinois]], a suburb of Chicago]]. The format broadly followed that of the previous event, however there were some changes. A sixth parallel track on [[Bottom (BDSM)|bottoming]] was added. There were fewer classes per track, per day, however the classes were longer.

Shibaricon [[2006 is planned for ]] was held [[May 26]]-29, at the Purple Hotel in [[Lincolnwood]].
