A Fan-Operated Science Fiction and Fantasy Literary and Filk Convention in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area

Convention Calendar

We want you to come to FenCon, of course, but there's nothing we love more than taking a roadtrip and meeting the fen all over Texas and the Great Southwest. So here's a list of every Texas event we could find plus a selection of the best cons from the region and around the country plus the major US and international cons. We'll let you know where our patent-pending semi-legendary room parties will be held in "News and Notes" on the home page.

If we missed one, please let us know. Enjoy.

For the Record


  • CAGE Con II hasn't updated their website in more than 20 months and it appears that this Dallas comics, art, and gaming expo will not be returning in December, 2007, as tentatively planned.
  • It breaks our hearts but Panda*Monium will not be returning in November, 2007, as hoped. We loved this Oklahoma City con and hope that it may someday again fill us with fannish joy.
  • Shiokazecon, a Houston anime con, will not be returning for 2007. The organizers say circumstances beyond their control have forced them to put the return of this first-year con on indefinite hiatus.
  • The O-Chibicon organizers say their Houston anime con, originally scheduled for August, is not returning for reasons of economics.
