Gaylaxicon

Gaylaxicon is an annual science fiction, fantasy and horror convention that focuses on gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender topics. It takes place in various locations in the United States of America usually on the east coast.

Origins
Started in 1988 in Provincetown, Massachusetts, Gaylaxicon is organized by member organizations of the Gaylactic Network.

The Gaylaxian Science Fiction Society (GSFS) is the New England-based chapter of the Network, which organized the original convention and continues to be a driving force behind many of the Gaylaxicons. GSFS is a member of the New England Science Fiction Association (NESFA).

Spectrum awards
The Gaylactic Spectrum Awards are usually awarded at Gaylaxicon, based on a nomination and voting process that is moderated by the Gaylactic Network.
