Sci-fi conventions are something that bring fans from all over the world together. And that's why the Conventions team is here, to provide you with a list of Conventions from around the world so that we may meet fellow fans.

This past month of October has had it's share of both large and small conventions. Included in this was VCon 27. Some of the media guests included Laura Bertram, John Gajdecki, Ryan Nicholson, J. Michael Straczynski, just to name a few.

F.A.C.T.S. was one of the other cons in October as well. The special guest stars were: Jeremy Bulloch (Bobba Fett), Alan Harris (Bossk) and Paul Blake (Greedo) and Doug Bradley of Pinhead fame. I sure wish i could have made this one.

Wolf SG-5, which took place in the UK, among others was also this last month. A few of the guests were Christopher Judge, Peter Williams, Gary Jones, Garwin Sanford, JR Bourne, Marshall Teague, N John Smith, and Lynn Smith.

Well, that's it for a few of the smaller conventions that took place last month, and now for next months upcoming convention events:

Con*cept 2002 will take place in Montreal Canada on November 2. Two confirmed guests are Richard Biggs, who played Dr. Stephen Franklin on Babylon 5; and Jason Carter, who played Marcus Cole on Babylon 5.

On November 8th - 10th, ArmadaCon will be taking place in Plymouth, UK. Michael Sheard (Admiral Ozzel from SW) will be there; Mike Collins, a writer and artist in both British and American comic books; and Andy Lane who will be the author there.

A Slanted Fedora Convention will be taking place on Novemeber the 29 - December 1, 2002. Just a few of the Star Trek Guests are Ethen Phillips (Neelix), Robert Picardo (The Docter), and Alexander Siddig (Docter Bashir from DS9).
