Welcome, Sherlockians!
The Sherlock Seattle Convention is a celebration of all things Sherlock! This year we will be featuring many interesting and informative panels, entertaining and hilarious events, some very special and prestigious guests, a brand new Sherlockian play that you can help shape, and much more!
Sherlock Seattle will once again be at the Broadway Performance Hall in the Capitol Hill district of Seattle, WA. We've expanded to a three day convention, October 4th, 5th and 6th, 2013, with the festivities starting on Friday afternoon and running through Sunday afternoon. Memberships are now available for purchase! Please read our RULES AND REGULATIONS before heading over to the MEMBERSHIP page to register.
We are honored to thus far have Leslie Klinger (author of "The Annotated Sherlock Holmes") and Lee Erik Shackleford (playwright of "Holmes & Watson") as Guests of Honor at Sherlock Seattle this year. We are still awaiting RSVPs from a number of invited guests and have just opened up applications for more! You can find our current list of panelists and their bios on our GUESTS page.
Wondering what sorts of shenanigans we're getting up to this year? Check out our PROGRAMMING page! Currently programming is still in development, but we have a list of panels that we offered last year to give you a sense of the sorts of things that you can expect, and we already have a list of some great events for this year!
Sadly, there is no official convention hotel as none of the hotels in the area could offer us a convention rate. However, we have compiled a list of hotels and B&Bs that are in the area, organized by distance to the venue - closest to furthest. You can find this listing on the GETTING HERE page, along with directions on how to get to the venue, parking options, and maps.
Last, but not least, Sherlock Seattle needs YOU! We are always looking for volunteers, because without volunteers there would be no convention! If you would like to help out at the convention (and get cool free swag along with a chance at winning some great prizes!) please visit our VOLUNTEER page and sign up today!
