The bid for the Dublin 2029 World Science Fiction Convention 🇮🇪
linktr.ee/dublin2029
Did you catch us at Luncon/Swecon last month? We had a great time at the convention and meeting all of you! And we were also at 3 great Irish events - Octocon, Gaelcon and the Irish Discworld Con.

Here’s our very own Thomas Rechtenwald repping Berlin’s Eurocon and our Dublin Worldcon - hard work!

See you in the UK this weekend? We’ll be popping up at Pictcon1 (Perth, Scotland) and Novacon (Buxton, England).

If you spot us, say hello. And do tag us if you take a photo, we’d love to see it! Novacon is from 7-9 November 2025 - you can check it out here: novacon.uk

And today in random encounters with children: A lady dropping her daughter off at swimming lesson who compliments me on my Helsinki Worldcon shirt. She is pleased to hear about @dublin2029.bsky.social and perhaps we will see each other there.

If you’re on Redbubble, make sure you’re buying from the real Dublin2029.

We’re seeing imitation merch pop up, and, while they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, we don’t want you to end up with a low-res copy of our lovely bid logo (1/2)

The first three requests we got at the @dublin2029.bsky.social Q&A at Seattle this summer were all along the lines of “but you’ll be sure to have the IVGO back if you win, right? Right?”

Definitely a group to support and a stream to catch!
🚨Stream Announcement!🚨

We'll be playing the upcoming game from @newtales.bsky.social, @fadingechogame.bsky.social joined by the wonderful @samanthabeart.bsky.social!

2pm BST this Tuesday 21st October

This is our first ever Twitch/YouTube stream, in aid of @mndassoc.bsky.social #GameOver! 🎮♥️
