From the 1st to the 2nd of Dezember 2017, the Fénixcon will be held in Brno in the Czech Republic again. It is a convention on the usual topice like fantasy, horror, science-fiction, history and more. The location will be the Hotel Vista.
I have already visited this event. In fact it is a rather small national event without an English program line. (But you will also meet a lot of Slovaks there.) For many visitors it also rather seems to be a time to relax, meet friends, drink a lot and get into the christmas mood!
