WisCon

Our panel doors are wide open. Please check out the Panel Interest Survey! Log into your WisCon account at the top left corner of http://wiscon.net and click on Interest Survey. You can tell us which panels you would like to see at WisCon this year, and, if you really want a panel to happen, volunteer to be on it! If we don't have panelists, we can't run that panel!

You can fill out the survey before you register, as long as you have a WisCon account. If you have ever been a WisCon member, you have an account; if you don't remember the password, there's a link to get help.

For more info, there is a blog post here: https://wiscon.net/2026/04/12/panel-interest-survey-open/

Unpopular Opinion: The best speculative fiction isn't just escapism, it's also protest. Keep lifting up your voices and your stories!

Are you ready for WisCon 2025? Registration is now open here: https://wiscon2025.sched.com

Tickets for WisCon this year are "pay what you can" with a few suggested amounts available. However, you can truly pay whatever makes sense for you (no pressure or judgement!) including $0. To pay a different amount than the suggested options, contact registration@wiscon.net with the desired amount so we can issue you a code.

Please note that the schedule is not yet available but we will let you know as soon as it is.

As a reminder, WisCon takes place over May 23-26, 2025 and is online only this year ("WisCONLINE"). We can't wait to see you there!

For any other questions, contact onlinecon@wiscon.net.

The WisCon Convention Committee is pleased to announce that we will be having an online convention in 2025!


What will WisCONline 2025 look like? In addition to being fully online with no in person presence, we are currently looking at changes to WisCon to make it more sustainable for our volunteers. This means WisCon may appear to “shrink”, but if we offer less (for example, fewer panels), it’s because our focus is on quality and maintaining WisCon’s values.


While we can’t give exact details this early, more than ever, the capacity WisCon has to do the things we all love will depend on having volunteers step up. We’re committed to avoiding the past burnout we’ve seen come from volunteers taking on too many roles.


When is it? It will take place Memorial Day weekend as always! (May 23-26, 2025, with some programming possible Thursday evening and Tuesday morning.)


Why online only? Unfortunately we weren’t able to recruit key volunteers in time to make an in-person con viable. We’re excited, however, to use this opportunity to explore what we can do to engage and reach our community in ways we can’t usually.


When can I register? We will send out more information soon about registering!


How can I get involved? We are still in need of many important volunteer roles, which will determine what the con actually looks like. Please check our list at
https://wiscon.net/open-volunteer-positions/
and contact personnel@sf3.org if there are any roles you’re interested in. Also look out for panel submission requests and other contact from our team!
