🚀 Lituanicon is the oldest annual Lithuanian festival of all things fantastic. This is the place where fandom meets fantasy and science fiction, where we embrace and celebrate the literature, movies, comics and games we love.
The event lasts one day and is filled with a great number of activities for everyone: talks by foreign and local speakers, RPG sessions, gaming (board, console and so on), competitions, workshops and many others.
The theme of Lituanicon XXXIV is HORROR. 😱
