StellarCon

StellarCon is one of the oldest student-led conventions still running today, and is proud to announce its return to the city of Greensboro, North Carolina.

Just as the University of North Carolina at Greensboro is known for the diversity of its student body, StellarCon is known for diversity in attendees, guests, and subject matter: In past years attendees have been able to see an academic talk from one of America’s bestselling authors the same day they take in a concert from one of the area’s most popular wizard rock bands. It’s not uncommon to see

Klingons and Imperial Stormtroopers gathered around the same gaming table. StellarCon is one of the smaller conventions in the area, and many attendees and guests have found that to be a large part of our charm. In the past, our guests who have attended larger, better known conventions have often commented that they appreciate the more intimate atmosphere that comes from a convention our size. At a convention with thousands of people, you might get a chance to shake your favorite author’s hand. At StellarCon, you may have the chance to chat with them one on one! If you’ve never attended StellarCon, there’s plenty to enjoy. If you’ve visited us in the past, we’ll be glad to see you again – and bring your kids, as well, because StellarCon is and always will be a family friendly convention. Check our Events for the next Stellarcon!
