For the last few years I was the staff member for Lajconik which changed the way how I was enjoying the con. Yet at Lajconik 15 I could get back to my “usual” role, or at least close to it.
ChrzanCon – Visiting a Local Event
If I recall correctly, I first heard about the idea for ChrzanCon during Imladris in 2025. Then some time passed and I saw information that the con will take place in March. I wanted to go, but was not sure whether I’ll manage. During KON_gres I learned that a bit of help with the programme would be needed and I decided to try coming…. And so I did.
KON_gres 2026 – Join Us, We Have a Cake
I am late with this report! Surprisingly, other duties occupied me so much that large part of the month passed before I sat down to this report. But enough excuses – let’s talk about KON_gres 2026.
Zjava 15 – opening of the convention season
As usually in recent years I opened convention season with Zjava. This time it was Zjava 15, a nice anniversary. Sadly it fell on the same weekend as the final of Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy (Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity). Because of that I had to choose between convention and a smaller event held by my local club. It was a tough decision, and in the end I decided to go for the con.

SMOFcon 42 – Don’t Panic and Appreciate Your Towel
is SMOFcon 42 was my second in person Smofcon. It took me eight years to come back to this con, and my experience this time was quite different. Over the course of those years I learned a lot, and I met many people. Not to mention that the world itself has changed a lot too!

Opolcon 2025 – Or Should I Be Writing a Review
I wanted to visit Opolcon for years. Yet every time something was standing in my way. More than once it was a concurrent convention in another place. This year the situation was similar but I decided that I need to finally attend Opolcon.

Bazyliszek x Polcon – Oops, I did it again
I love conventions. This should be pretty obvious to anyone who follows this blog. Yet there are some limits. I realized a few years ago that doing more than two in a row is hard and I try to avoid it… Yet I ended up doing it again. I started with Seminarium Literackie, followed by Archipelacon 2, and then by Bazyliszek x Polcon. The good thing is that I don’t regret it at all!

Archipelacon 2 – Tranquillity And The Convention
Not so long ago I attended Archipelacon 2 in Mariehamn and it was a slightly new experience to me. Well it may be an overstatement but I feel like that a bit.

Seminarium Literackie 2025 – Every Possible Universe
That last weekend I attended the Seminarium Literackie 2025 ran by Silesian SFF Club (ŚKF). I must say that it was exactly the con I needed now. The mix of programme and socializing was perfect and I came back home filled with positive thoughts. (I won’tsay that I came back relaxed as I was quite tired).

Lajconik 2025 And The Time Travel
So we made it! We finally travelled in time. Well it was only a move forward but one must start with something ok? So we had Lajconik 2025 planned for April 26th and 27th and just a few days before the con the National Mourning was announced and we had travel through time (and space!). We ended up having the same convention in a different venue 1.5 month later. As usually when I am the member of the concom I won’t try to rate the event, but I will share some thoughts about it.
