We had a great time at TusCon this year, now to get to sharing some of those great panels! But what is TUSCON 48?
Hello, fellow fans. Welcome to TusCon, Arizona! More specifically, welcome to TusCon 48, our 48th annual Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Horror convention in Tuscon… ah, we mean rather Tucson, Arizona. Attendees of TusCon are among the most dedicated fans of science fiction, fantasy, and horror and many attendees are professional writers, film producers, artists, and reporters who keep others informed about the goings-on in the industry.
TusCon is an annual science fiction convention sponsored by the Baja Arizona Science Fiction Association (BASFA), a Southern Arizona section 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization. The primary focus of TusCon is science fiction, fantasy and horror, but we also pay attention to art, animation, science, media and gaming.
