| Picocon23 - Saturday 18th February 2006
What is Picocon?
Picocon is the annual one-day Science Fiction & Fantasy convention run by
the Imperial College Science Fiction society (ICSF). It usually takes
place on a Saturday in February, in Imperial College's Student Union. We
try not to clash with other conventions around the same time.
It is a small (hence the name), affordable and convenient convention for
students in or near London, and London fandom. Registration usually opens
at 10am, first event ~11, finishing up in the evening around 7-8pm. At a
Picocon you may encounter:
Guests of Honour doing talks and panels
Destruction of Dodgy Merchandise (you're welcome to bring along donations)
All-day LAN gaming (usually some form of Unreal Tournament)
Stalls selling books and other stuff
General socialising room, also with games organised throughout the day by
the Wargames society (e.g. Fluxx)
Quiz and silly games
possibly a Film in the Union Cinema
Student Union bar
The first Picocon was in 1984. If you're curious, we have a record of
Picocons of years gone by.
When? Where?
Picocon 23 will take place on Saturday 18th February 2006 at Imperial
College Students Union on Prince Consort Road in South Kensington, London.
Guests of Honour
Ian Watson
