Åcon is an annual science fiction convention, held in May or June every year in Mariehamn, Åland.[1][2] It was founded in 2007[3] with the goal of bringing Swedish and Finnish science fiction fandom together, and described as being a literary relaxacon with all programming in English.[4] While a few of the participants are Ålanders, the majority travel from mainland Finland and Sweden for the convention.[5]
