World Fantasy Convention 2026
About
We invite you to join us October 22-25, 2026, at the Oakland Convention Center in downtown Oakland, California. Join authors, artists, publishers, editors, and fans of fantasy literature and books for four days of craft, community, and audacious possibility. We will celebrate the full breadth of speculative genres and spotlight visionary writers, poets, publishers, illustrators, and world-builders shaping the field right now. Located in downtown Oakland, accessible by public transportation from all three Bay Area international airports, the downtown convention center will be our gathering ground, with a Dealers Room, Art Show, and the World Fantasy Awards
