Friday 3rd - Sunday 5th November - ArmadaCon
I shall be one of the guests at this year's ArmadaCon, a Sci-Fi and Fantasy Multimedia Convention that's been running in Plymouth since 1988. Other conventions tend to be focused one medium or one subject within that medium but the organisers of AramdaCon found that fans find this format restrictive as most fans like more than one type of medium irrespective of subject matter. For more information about events at ArmadaCon, follow this link.
