What is WorldCon?

WorldCon is the annual World Science Fiction Convention, for both professionals and enthusiasts alike. The first WorldCon, also the first modern SF convention, was held in New York City in 1939, and, except for the brief global interruption of fanac that was World War II, has been held every year since, in cities all over Planet Earth.

Ganymede in 2110!

With bids already launched to host WorldCon on the Moon in 2069 and on Mars in 2095, the time has come for a bid from the outer Solar System. Join us to help celebrate the 500th anniversary of Galileo's ground-breaking telescope astronomy work, which led to the discovery of Ganymede and Jupiter's three other largest moons.
