What is Norwescon?
Norwescon is one of the largest regional Science Fiction conventions in the United States.
While maintaining a primarily literary focus, Norwescon is large enough to provide a venue
for many of the other aspects of Science Fiction and the interests of its fans such as anime,
costuming, art, and much, much more.
Norwescon is the host convention for the prestigious Philip K. Dick Award, given to a distinguished original
science fiction paperback published for the first time during the award year in the U.S.A.
Finally Norwescon is a lot of fun.
