AggieCon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

AggieCon is the oldest and largest student-run science fiction convention in the United States. Held annually since 1969 by Cepheid Variable at Texas A&M University's Memorial Student Center, it has grown to become one of the larger conventions in Texas. The convention is known for its relaxed atmosphere, where guests and attendees can sit and chat on the couches outside the dealers' room and art show.

The scope of AggieCon ranges from science fiction to fantasy to horror, and encompasses literature, graphic arts, and general media. Activities and events include panel discussions, costume contest, the Rocky Horror Picture Show, dealer's room, art show, and much gaming, including LARPing.

The next AggieCon, AggieCon 38, will be held from March 22 to March 25, 2007, with Richard Hatch, James O'Barr, Gene Wolfe, and Ruth Thompson as guests.
