Picocon 40 (ICSF's yearly mini-convention) will be running on 11th March. There will be guest speakers, pub quizzes, destruction of dodgy merch and games.


This year’s theme will be “Twisted” and aims to celebrate those who have left their mark on us by adding their own twist to conventions, expectations or tropes!
