Hey folks! Do you love queueing? We don't either! Many of you spend hours of your convention queued to get into the Den and with this year promising to be our biggest event ever, we knew we had to do something about that. So, new for 2026 we're introducing the Den Virtual Queue!

Hey friends. One of the hallmarks of our community is the way in which it comes together in times of grief. A few months ago, we very suddenly lost Neutron, a well known member of the fandom. This loss affected a number of us deeply and we grieve alongside all of you.

Scotiacon wishes a very happy Burns Night to all! As the renowned poet once wrote;
Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face,
Great chieftain o' the puddin-race!
Aboon them a' ye tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Weel are ye wordy o’ a grace
As lang's my arm.
Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face,
Great chieftain o' the puddin-race!
Aboon them a' ye tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Weel are ye wordy o’ a grace
As lang's my arm.

Hi y'all! This year will be the first time that we are operating events in two different venue hotels. They're pretty close together, a lovely 7 minute riverside walk down the Clyde, but what if it is dark or the weather is poor? Don't worry, just take a ride on the Wallace Line!
