Vancouver, WA — November 14–16, 2025
For fans of mystery, history, and a touch of Northwest folklore, DB Cooper Con 2025 is returning to Kiggins Theatre in downtown Vancouver for a weekend packed with storytelling, investigation, and intrigue surrounding one of America’s most legendary unsolved cases — the disappearance of skyjacker D.B. Cooper.
🕵️♂️ The Mystery That Started It All
The story begins on November 24, 1971, when an unidentified man using the alias Dan Cooper hijacked a Northwest Orient Airlines flight between Portland and Seattle. After securing a $200,000 ransom, Cooper parachuted into the night somewhere over Southwest Washington — and was never seen again.
Decades later, his fate remains one of the most fascinating cold cases in FBI history, and it’s become a symbol of intrigue, rebellion, and Pacific Northwest lore. Each year, DB Cooper Con brings together enthusiasts, authors, investigators, and curiosity-seekers who are still chasing the truth behind the legend.
