Ithacon is a comics-focused fan convention hosted in Ithaca, New York. It is run by the students of Ithaca College School of Business course MGMT 29800 ITHACON: Promoting and Managing Conventions, allowing business students to take full responsibility of organizing and managing the convention.

The convention started in 1976 and has been held every year with the exception of 2020, due to Covid. Organizers are not compensated, and all profits are reinvested for future events.
