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:
