Below is written ‘Edited by Sara Felix, James Bacon and Iain Clark’. The top left image is a green watercolour with the Dublin logo in the centre.

There have been some amazing things created for Glasgow 2024 using yarn, tartan, fabrics, the con logo and its elements, and many others. So many so that another Art and Artistry book will be published after the con!

Our thoughts are with our Guest of Honour Ken MacLeod, and his family, on the passing of his wonderful wife Carol. We had the great joy of having Carol as part of our Worldcon and fandom community and she will be deeply missed.

The team would like you to indicate if you’re likely to attend (so there is a rough idea of numbers) by completing:

The programme will be the Glasgow 2024 replay programme accessible via the member portal

Many thanks to all the good folks who ran @glasgow2024.bsky.social so beautifully, and hosted me with kindness and care. I had a terrific time, full of good conversations with friends old and new. Thanks also to @amalelmohtar.com and all the others I shared various stages with. I loved every minute.
We don't know if Clyde is already in! We would recommend putting Clyde in yourself just in case!
