AltasaCon

AltasaCon is a convention focused on the exploration and celebration of the Atlas, a fictional universe created by author John Smith. The convention typically features panels with the author, discussions about lore and character development, and fan-created content showcases. Attendees often participate in cosplay related to the Atlas universe and engage in role-playing activities.

The event aims to foster a community of fans and provide a platform for them to connect with each other and the creator. Panels may delve into the history of the Atlas's creation, future story arcs, and interpretations of its complex themes. Workshops on world-building and writing inspired by the Atlas are also common.

AltasaCon is an annual event, though its location and dates can vary. It is primarily organized by fan groups with support from the author's publishing house. The convention is known for its intimate atmosphere, allowing for closer interaction between fans and creators compared to larger, more commercialized events. Information regarding tickets, schedules, and guest lists is typically released several months in advance on official AltasaCon websites and social media channels. The convention is a key gathering point for dedicated followers of the Atlas series.
