Welcome to the homepage for the Southern Fandom
Resource Guide convention calendar, a
comprehensive listing of Science Fiction, Fantasy,
Gaming, Comics, Anime and Pop Culture conventions held
in the Southeastern United States.
Founded in 1995, the SFRG is maintained by longtime
Southern fan
Kelly Lockhart
and is updated on a weekly basis (depending on work and
vacation schedules). Be sure to "like" us on our
Facebook page to keep up with the latest updates.
Conventions are listed by date, convention name (linked
to their website), and city and state where they are
being held. If you know of a convention that we do not
have listed (or need to correct an existing listing),
please
send us the relevant information so that we can
include them as well.
Our
coverage region includes: Florida, Georgia, Alabama,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky,
Virginia, West Virginia, South Carolina, North Carolina,
Maryland, along with portions of Texas and Missouri. It
may not be the most precise definition of
"Southern", but
it works for us.

A
note on advertising: Many people over the years
have asked why the SFRG has no advertising. Simple
reason: we don't need it. More detailed reasons:
keeping track of advertising is a lot of work, we
feel that ads clutter up the site, and we like to be
completely independent favoring no convention over
any other. And we don't need it. The only expenses
the site incurs are hosting costs and domain
registration, which are minimal. We don't even take
donations. If you really want to express your
appreciation for this site, the next time you see me
(Kelly) at a con, just tell me. You don't even need
to buy me a drink...unless you really want to, in
which case I won't turn one down. Hey, I'm not
stupid. Bourbon is my fav, just as a point of
reference. |
