Westercon 73
Westercon 73, originally called Westercon 2020, "Perfect Vision", was originally scheduled to be held July 2-5, 2020 at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Seattle Airport in Seatac, WA. It was postponed to July 1-4, 2021 and then turned into a virtual convention due to the Covid-19 epidemic. Westercon 74 originally selected for 2021, moved to 2022.
Author GoH was David Brin, Artist GoH is Rob Carlos, Science GoH was Ethan Siegel, and Fan Guests of Honor were Kevin Roche and Andrew Trembley.
The committee was Chair: Sally Woehrle, Vice-Chair: Gene Armstrong, Programming: Gibbitt Rhys-Jones, Speculative Film Festival: Shawn Marier, Treasurer: Walter Parker, Social Media: Marah Searle-Kovacevic, and Website: Alex von Thorn.
Woehrle quit and Armstrong took over, but by April 2021 they had determined that they did not have the staff to run a convention and cancelled the convention.
It was bid for by Seattle in 2020, which was sponsored by Seattle Westercon Organizing Committee. See 2020 Westercon Site Selection.
It would have conducted Site Selection for Westercon 75, the 2023 Westercon. (It had been scheduled to conduct site selection for Westercon 75 when it was the 2022 Westercon, but as of the filing deadline no bid had filed.) Site s4election will be held handled by LASFS.
