Le congres de science-fiction et fantastique de Montreal | Montreal's science-fiction and fantasy convention

:: Posted by max @ 10/09/2008 02:04:00 AM
Con*Cept is Montreal's fan run annual science-fiction and fantasy convention.

It kicks off this year Friday October 17 and runs till the 19th , and attempts to cover all aspects of fandom: literature, television, comics, art, gaming, and more.

The Event is booked at the Days Hotel, 1005 Guy Street, Montreal.

A detail that caught my eye from their facebook group is...

The Montreal Centre of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada will be attending Con*Cept. Weather permitting, there will be telescopes day and night! Yes, the sun is a star, and can be observed through specialized telescopes. Two Center members are planning to bring their hydrogen alpha and calcium K solar telescopes.

Also what looks like some tentative programing notes: More details here on the main site.
