Atlanta Distillery and Dragon Con are proud to announce their partnership for a second consecutive year, unveiling the 2026 Dragon Con Vodka and returning Atlanta Distillery as the Official Vodka of Dragon Con.
Following the success of the inaugural Dragon Con Vodka release in 2025, the Atlanta-based craft distillery and internationally recognized fan convention are once again bringing fans a commemorative spirit inspired by the creativity, imagination, and community that have made Dragon Con one of Atlanta’s most beloved annual traditions.
Crafted locally in Marietta, Georgia, Dragon Con Vodka is a limited-edition, small-batch release designed for fans, collectors, cosplayers, and anyone who believes fandom is best experienced together. Featuring the winning artwork of Dragon Con fan artist Elaine Knox, selected through the annual Dragon Con bottle art competition, the 2026 collector’s edition bottle celebrates the creativity and imagination that define the convention experience.
Unlike traditional grain-based vodkas, Atlanta Distillery’s vodka is crafted from apples and cane sugar, resulting in a smoother, naturally gluten-free spirit that reflects the company’s roots as Atlanta’s original craft cidery and distillery.
“Atlanta has become a destination for creativity, fandom, and innovation, and Dragon Con is a huge part of that story. We’re honored to bring together two Atlanta institutions in a way that celebrates the city we call home,” said Mark Deno, Founder at Atlanta Distillery.
“The first year exceeded our expectations, proving once again that Dragon Con fans are enthusiastic collectors of just about everything. We’re excited to continue our partnership with Atlanta Distillery and bring back a collaboration that celebrates Atlanta, creativity, and the wonderfully imaginative community that makes Dragon Con special,” said Mandy Collier, Co-Chair at Dragon Con.
For nearly four decades, Dragon Con has transformed downtown Atlanta into one of the largest and most celebrated pop culture conventions in the world, drawing tens of thousands of fans each Labor Day weekend to celebrate science fiction, fantasy, gaming, comics, literature, art, music, and film.
Beginning June 1, Dragon Con Vodka will be available for online presale alongside other local makers. Dragon Con Vodka will be available through DragonConSpirits.com, select Atlanta-area retailers, restaurants, bars, and participating Dragon Con events while supplies last.
