“˜Convicts for a Cause´ is always a themed event, and this year is no exception! The theme is Convict-Con ““ Think Comic-Con, but instead of celebrating superheroes and sci-fi stars, we are gathering to pay tribute to the biggest and the meanest characters ever to have been put behind bars! Up to 500 Perth business people will come dressed as their favourite criminal ““ Dead or alive, real or fictional, the possibilities are endless. “¢ Paris Hilton “¢ Sideshow Bob “¢ Ned Kelly “¢ Al Capone “¢ Charles Manson “¢ John Dilinger “¢ Lindsay Lohan “¢ Robert Downey Jr. “¢ Fyodor Dostoyevsky “¢ Michael Scofield “¢ Andy Dufresne “¢ Henri 'Papillon' Charriere Convicts will spend the night socialising and enjoying the dark haunted corridors of the Old Freemantle jail whilst sipping fine wines from “˜Capel Vale´ who said they were proud to be the major wine sponsor of Cystic Fibrosis WA, and generously provides all wines served at the Convicts for a Cause event.

Other organisations benefiting from this massive event are , Cystic fibrosis Western Australia, Diabetes Research Western Australia, Rotary or Perth and the Rotary Club of Mt Lawley.
Every individual sets their bounty target as an individual or a “˜Gang´. The bounty donated to each gang member, contributes to their bounty and also to the bounty of the gang they are in.
No need to bring a sleeping bag as everyone will be released at 11pm, anyone having trouble reaching their bounty might need to try and convince a friend to help out... All the more reason to bring lots of friends along on the evening!
