LI-CON’s Code of Conduct is now available from the Info menu at the top of this page. We confidently expect that everyone will follow these simple rules and make all our time at LI-CON fun and safe.

Thank you

I’d like to thank all the people who showed their faith in us by registering for an unknown, brand-new convention in advance.

We will do everything we can to earn the trust you have shown us.

ICON Indiegogo campaign over: LI-CON Store now open

ICON Science Fiction’s fund-raising campaign via Indiegogo has ended.

We did not raise the targeted amount. I want to emphasize two things:

  1. LI-CON is a go. We are holding the event in March.
  2. I-CON the event has not been abandoned. It just won’t happen in June. We will continue to work on it and when it happens, anyone who purchased a membership as part of the campaign is still a member.

For more details see the announcement.

So how can you get LI-CON memberships now? Via the LI-CON online store, which you can find by clicking the Register for LI-CON link at the top of this very window.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the campaign.
