The Locus Awards are a science fiction and fantasy literary award polled by the readers of Locus magazine since 1971. The awards are presented at a banquet, MC’d by the witty and entertaining Connie Willis. Autograph Session, Panel Discussions with Leading Authors and an annual Hawaiian shirt contest are highlights of the event. Attending memberships are $50 until May 1, 2017 and includes six months digital subscription to Locus Magazine from February to August 2017 issue. In addition, the Locus Writers Workshop will be taking place the same weekend with instructors Connie Willis and Carrie Vaughn. More details are available at the Locus Awards Weekend website.

Norwescon is proud to be a sponsor for the Locus Awards Weekend.
