Via Concatenation I learn that there are plans afoot for fans in New Zealand to hold their 2010 NatCon the weekend before the expected Australian Worldcon. As you may know, the Aussies pretty much have a lock on 2010 as they are the only official bid on the ballot. I suspect that the prospect of stopping off in New Zealand the weekend before will appeal to a lot of traveling American and Canadian fans (it is harder from Europe as the flights go the other way). I very much enjoyed the one New Zealand convention I attended, and I’d love a chance to go back there, even if it is out of the Super 14 season. Any Kiwis out there know anything about this?
One thought on “Antipodean Tour?”

You, alas, know more than we.
That said, we will get to the next Phoenix meeting and- after calling to order a BASFA meeting in the corner- dig for deets.
We were planning on hosting, uh, something the week before or after the con on an wee basis, possibly involving a tourbus and the South Island.
We will see what we will see.
