* Notes

U.S.A. California conventions all took place in the Los Angeles (L.A.) area. Three are known to have taken place in suburbs or other nearby cities. For the first convention in the area (1986), the Editor does not have information indicating whether or not it took place in a suburb or the city proper. La Mirada and Norwalk are near each other, about 10-15 miles ESE of downtown L.A. Norwalk's population was ~97,000 during the 1990's, but barely appears as a small label on maps. Culver City is a few miles north of the LAX airport, and is the first(?) suburb directly west of downtown.
Main Mission: 2000 took place in the New York City borough of Manhattan.

Statements

There were quite a few more U.K. conventions, but most were Fab or Fanderson conventions featuring all of Gerry Anderson's works. When the Editor's full conventions page is returned to this site, that full list will be accessible.
