Episode 61: How to Run an Online Convention

This year has seen an explosion of online science fiction and fantasy conventions. Existing conventions were forced to switch to a virtual format, new conventions were formed, and fringe programming provided content for those of us unable to attend conventions.

While most of this was out of necessity (thanks, 2020), these online events will likely stay around for the foreseeable future. Since this is an area that hasn’t been around long enough to have widely implemented standards, now is the time to look back and reflect on what went well and what could be improved.

Joining us this week are L.D. Lewis (director of FIYAHCON), Allie Charlesworth (co-chair of MultiverseCon), and Adri Joy (organizer for CoNZealand Fringe).
