SwampCon 2026: Return to the Sea is happening Saturday, February 28th and Sunday, March 1st at the J. Wayne Reitz Union on the University of Florida campus in Gainesville, and it’s completely free! You just register online and enjoy two days of panels, guests, vendors, artist alley, contests, and a maid cafe. Guest lineup includes Azazus, El Nerdy Senpai, Goblin Market, Dom Gold, Sailor Geek, and Sir Spirit Cosplay. Registration is open now through Eventbrite at swampcon.org.
Book lovers, mark your calendars. The 14th annual Coastal Magic Convention is happening February 19-22, 2026 at The Shores Resort & Spa in Daytona Beach Shores, Florida. Weekend registration is $130 and gets you into everything including a welcome bag, access to all panels, Saturday lunch with an author, author-hosted meet and greets, and the book signing that’s open to the public. This isn’t one of those massive conventions where you’re fighting crowds. Coastal Magic is deliberately kept casual, giving authors and readers space to actually get to know each other.
A Lorwyn Eclipsed prerelease road trip that ended with a packed and friendly Monday night at West Orange Comics and Video Games in Ocoee, Florida, where the games were fun, the room was full, and the vibe felt just right.
