There’s a convention that I’ve been invited to in Maryland over the same dates as DragonCon, which I’d really like to make. But Judith REALLY wants to see James Marsters (Spike, from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) at DragonCon…so we’ll see.
Also, I’m not sure of the dates for DragonMeet (London) and RockCon (Rockford), and the location of Dorkstock II is up in the air.A couple of other conventions have made bids to host it, but since it’s still growing, perhaps Rockford is the place for it again.
GenCon UK and Salute (both London) *may* be added in April.
Anyhoo, at least this is a start
