Every Single Thing Happening at BravoCon 2025

Thursday’s sole event was not without its mishaps. Or its triumphs.

The recent taping of Watch What Happens Live, celebrating 20 years of The Real Housewives, was quite a scene! Fans lined up for drinks, the sound wasn’t great, and RHONY‘s Erin Lichy actually tripped and fell on the stairs as she came on stage. The event brought together almost 30 Housewives, including original cast members like Vicki Gunvalson and Shereé Whitfield, as well as Carole Radziwill, who recently returned to the show and looked fantastic in a tuxedo-style outfit.

BravoCon delivered the drama as usual, starting with a playful game of ‘Squash That Beef’ where Gizelle Bryant from Real Housewives of Potomac hilariously ‘erased’ Adriana de Moura from Real Housewives of Miami. But the highlight was a new game called ‘Full-Time, Friend Of, or Forgotten’ – a twist on ‘Fuck, Marry, Kill’ where the Housewives chose which former cast members they’d want to return as full-time cast members, as ‘friends of’ the show, or not at all. The results are sure to be entertaining when the episode airs on Bravo, Monday, November 17th at 9:15 p.m. Hopefully, a funny moment with Erin will make the final cut too – watching her stumble is always good for a laugh.

Watch what happens live on Peacock (and Substack!) on Friday.

The fun begins Friday morning at 11 a.m. Eastern Time as BravoCon gets underway! Carole Radziwill will start things off with a live session on her Substack newsletter, called The Voice of Reason with Carole Radziwill.

Where is BravoCon 2025 taking place?

Since the last BravoCon in Las Vegas in 2023, the event has moved to a significantly larger venue – from a smaller theater at the Paris hotel to a much bigger one at Planet Hollywood. It’s at least two or three times the size! There were quite a few empty seats at Thursday night’s Watch What Happens Live taping, likely because fans are still arriving from all over the country. I even met some enthusiastic fans from Boston, California, Arizona, and Montana outside the event.

How to watch BravoCon from the comfort of your home.

If you can’t get to Las Vegas for the weekend’s events, you can still watch them on Peacock! The Bravoverse Live Stage events will be streamed live, and panels from the Gold and Glam stages will be available on Peacock starting at noon ET the next day. You can find a complete schedule of panels and events here.
