A Fan-Operated Science Fiction and Fantasy Literary and Filk Convention in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area
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 across the
region plus the major US and international cons. We'll let you know where our patent-pending
semi-legendary room parties will be held on our home page.
If we missed a convention, please let us know. Enjoy.
