Atlantic Canada’s biggest sci-fi, fantasy and gaming convention is slated to return at full capacity in 2022. The return to a full-scale convention comes after the Covid-19 pandemic caused Hal-Con to cancel plans for 2020 and to host the event at a reduced size in 2021.
Hal-Con Sci-Fi Fantasy Association will host the 2022 convention at the Halifax Convention Centre from October 28th to 30th, 2022. Tickets will go on sale June 24th, 2022. Further details about ticket sales, as well as guest announcements, will be shared via the Hal-Con website and social media channels as the event approaches.
Since 2010, Hal-Con has brought some of the biggest names in the sci-fi, fantasy and gaming world to Halifax for the annual Hal-Con convention. Hal-Con also hosts year-round events with a focus on bringing people together to build and enhance the local community. The annual Charity Auction, held during the convention weekend, donates proceeds to the IWK and The Kids Help Phone. Hal-Con is registered with the Province of Nova Scotia (Registry of Joint Stocks) as a society, granting NPO status.
