Convention
a.k.a.
- Con (common reference or even title fragment)
Definition
- In the area of science fiction media,
a gathering of fans, frequently with one or more
guests of honor from the series of focus and/or
science fiction in general.
These are usually (always?) fan organized.
Intro
There have been various conventions in
(at least) Europe and North America
focused primarily on the series,
as well as some additional ones with a broader range
but still some S19 focus.
This KB primarily features the former in its entries,
though at least one entry also lists the latter.
Please see the See Also listings.

Statements
- All SpaceCons through 1999 were organized by the
International Space: 1999 Alliance.
It is not clear if this organization exists anymore.
SpaceCons after 1999 have been organized by Ellen Lindow.
- In subsequent Conventions... entries,
cons primarily focused on S19
(as best the Editor can determine) are marked in yellow,
cons more generalized around all Gerry Anderson series
(not present in all KB entries) are marked in green,
unknown situations are unmarked.
