MicroCon 2022 is a micronational event that occurred from August 5 - 7, 2022 at Sam's Town Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was the fourth conference to be held under the MicroCon banner. The event had initially been planned for Summer of 2021, but was delayed due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. It was hosted Westarctica.
Immediately following MicroCon 2017, Grand Duke Travis and King Timothy of Shiloh discussed the possibility of jointly hosting a summit in Las Vegas, Nevada. Vegas was selected due to its cheap flights, wide array of hotel options, and first class entertainment. The first planning meeting of the Organizing Committee occurred on 7 January 2020 at Downtown Disney in Anaheim, CA, only a few miles away from the site of the first MicroCon. The event's official website was launched two days later to share the committee's proposed schedule.
