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 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.

For the Record


  • It breaks our hearts but Panda*Monium was unable to return in November, 2007, as hoped. We loved this Oklahoma City con and hope that it may someday again fill us with fannish joy.
  • The Sci-Fi Expo originally scheduled for June 28-29, 2008, in Richardson, Texas, was merged with another event by the same promoter.
