Science Fiction Cons this year
I’m trying to get my cousin Randy to come out to Denver for a visit. He’s the one that got me into sci-fi/fantasy when I was a kid, so as you might guess, an SF con might be the thing to convince him. We were talking about Mile Hi con in October, but I wanted to get a list of options out to him so he could see if something else piqued his fancy.
However, I’ve forgotten about more cons than I’ve ever been to, and I’m pretty sure this isn’t a complete list. I know that there might be some cons I’ve missed that are fun that I’ve just never made it to. I know many of the people on my friends list are avid SF fans, and probably know of a lot of fun stuff that I've missed. Let me know of any favourite (relatively local) cons that you would add to this list!
