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).

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.
Recently I managed to fulfil one of my dreams – I attended a convention in Japan. I cannot say it was my lifelong dream – my young self would not even dare to dream of something like that. Yet, since I learned about HAL-CON I knew I wanted to attend it. And at last I managed to do so this year. It was fun but also challenging. HAL-CON was so similar to other cons I visited and also so different from them.
My second con this year was KON_gres 2025. It is a conrunning convention that I attend every year. This time it came back to it’s cradle – Wrocław. Yet instead of being held in the library on the Main Square, it took place in the conference centre at the city stadium.

I opened my 2025 convention season with Zjava 14 in Warszawa. As usually, it was a nice con with friendly atmosphere. Similarly to last year I didn’t play any games despite the con being a gaming event. Yet can I still call it that way?
Ten years ago Toudi convinced me to visit Nordcon. At first I had somehow mixed feelings, yet now, after ten years I can say that I enjoy this convention very much! This year, although being a bit specific to me, was also very good and I am glad that I attended.
I heard of Bilcon a few years ago. Not sure when exactly, but I wanted to attend it since. Yet somehow each year since then I had some other plans and couldn’t go. This year I finally managed to do so. Bilcon is a small (up to 70 members) convention in Bílovec, near Ostrava in Czech Republic.
It was around two years age when Częstochowski Dzień Fantastyki (The SFF Day of Częstochowa) appeared on the convention scene in Poland. It is a small, day long event that to my surprise is held four times in a year. Somehow every time they held it I couldn’t go, yet this has finally changed.
This year Polcon travelled back to Toruń where it was held back in 2018. The main difference, however, is that this time it was joint with the local con – Copernicon, and thus the full name was Copernicon x Polcon. The latter is a huge event spread across most of the city centre.
