==MicroCon Committee==
The MicroCon Committee is composed of one representative from each of five micronations: Molossia, Ruritania, Slabovia, Westarctica and Ladonia. These micronations hosted the first five MicroCon events.
To be considered as a host of a future MicroCon event, potential hosts must submit an application with detailed information explaining their plan for hosting the conference. The committee is responsible for reviewing bids submitted by micronations that apply to host the event, and select which applicant will host. The committee does not actively participate in the planning of the MicroCon event, but its members can be a valuable resource to host nations planning the event.
The winning bidder is notified prior to the next MicroCon and then the host is revealed during the event itself.
