We like to think of MarsCon as a weekend long party for people who enjoy Science Fiction and Fantasy. It’s a chance to gather with 1,400 or so of your closest friends (or make new friends if you don’t know all 1,400 of us), and talk about science fiction, fantasy, cosplay, gaming, your favorite author, or whatever else you like to talk about.

If you’re looking to game, we have lots of gaming. We’ve had Special Music from Mikey Mason, Jonah Knight, Danny Birt, The Blibbering Humdingers, Valentine Wolfe and many others.

Come out for a night of spooky goodness on January 11. ∆LYS (The Parlor Pinks/The Third Service) will be bringing ethereal electronic vibes during her first solo set at The Eighth State. Here's a link! https://soundcloud.com/deltalys Valentine Wolfe returns to The Eighth State with their unique blend of gothic and operatic influences. Don't miss this one! It's free!

Join us for a free Holiday Concert with Gothic Chamber Metal and our haunted visions of Christmas favorites! Dark music to go with dark beer, hoping those bumps in the night are just reindeer...
