KublaCon

KublaCon occurs annually over the Memorial Day weekend at the Hyatt Regency in Burlingame, and grows a little bigger and a little better every year. This is a fun convention with a good variety of games. See the web site at www.kublacon.com.

ConQuest SF

ConQuest SF takes place over Labor Day weekend annually, at the San Francisco Airport Marriott Hotel. In 2005 this convention was run for the first time by its new owners, Avalon Game Conventions. See the web site at: www.avalonconventions.com/conquestsf/

The Shield Conference

This great little convention was started by Manny Granillo and friends in 2004 as a collection of ancients and rennaissance tournaments, and is steadily outgrowing it's humble origins. It has now expanded to include historical miniatures games of all formats and periods, and features an amazing selection of games, an excellent flea market, and a fantastic assortment of dealers superbly suited to our community's very particular tastes. The event has a very home-grown and friendly feel to it, and while it's still a little rough around the edges, it's always a top-notch effort that's improving every year. If you have any interest in historical miniatures gaming, this convention is well worth attending.

ConQuest SAC

Another convention by the folks at Avalon Game Conventions, this one in Sacramento in April.

Historicon

This isn't a local convention at all, but many of our members make the pilgrimmage every year to visit this greatest of all historical miniatures events. HMGS East is the club that puts on this event, and in case you didn't know, they put on two other major historical miniatures conventions in the same location each year, called Fall In! and Cold Wars.
