#ScienceFictionConventions #swancon50 #swancon2025
#ScienceFiction #FantasyJust a semiperiodical heads up that Swancon - #WesternAustralia 's beloved Science Fiction and #Fantasy #SpeculativeFiction volunteer run convention will be turning the big 50 next year, wow!
In keeping with this spectacular achievement, a spectacular venue - the beautiful Pagoda Hotel and spa.
In addition, it's recently announced that Swancon50 will be the National SF Convention for Australia, which brings in Tansy Rayner Roberts (Livia Day) as Guest of Honour! The other Guests of Honour are not to be sneezed at either!

This is community run event, as always, staffed entirely by volunteers. There will be panels, discussions, workshops, games and costumes, dancing and singing with a friendly and inclusive atomosphere.
Unlike Comicon or Supanova, once you're in the door, panels and such are free entry. Workshops might incur a fee for materials.
So take a look and hope to see you there!
