www.dragonflight.org is the official site. It has general information as
well as a Word file containing the pre-convention schedule.  From
personal experience, the number of events actually run will be at least
doubled. There are always a few starship mini games run during the
convention, and Geo-hex usually has a presence (KR usually shows
up).

Dragonflight is a general games convention, which means every genre has a
significant presence with plenty of space. Miniatures and boardgames each have
large rooms; RPGs take up a floor or two of dorm rooms; CCGs get half the
cafeteria; computer games get the basement (which makes it the most
comfortable place to be during Seattle's warmest month). The nice thing is
that Dragonflight isn't TOO large (if I remember my numbers correctly
it averages about 700+ attendees) so finding space in an event is
usually fairly easy, but it's large enough to have a good variety. It's also a
fairly cheap convention to go to, with a convention rate of $35-ish and
cheap (if spartan) dorm rooms available. Even though I live in the city I rent
a room.
