Nine Worlds is a new convention in London, UK, 9–11 August 2013. It’s about gaming, film, cosplay, fandom, literature, science, geek culture, meeting people and having a really big party

Nine Worlds promises to act as a mecca for geeks in the UK- whether you're into Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, Star Trek or Settlers of Catan. We're particularly excited by their 'Geek Feminism' programme- including speakers like Laurie Penny on Cybersexism, talks from women working in technology and visual effects and in depth examinations of subjects like Joss Whedon's feminisim and the Women of Westeros. 

 All proceeds from the Nine Worlds convention will go to their charity partner English PEN, a charity that supports persecuted writers around the world and is the UK's oldest human rights organisation. None of the Nine Worlds organising team are being paid for their work.

Winners will be selected at random.
