JordanCon is a Science Fiction/Fantasy literature convention founded in honor of Robert Jordan, author of the Wheel of Time. Taking place each April in Atlanta, GA, JordanCon is a tax exempt 501(c)(4) non-profit organization, whose proceeds benefit the Mayo Clinic.
It’s time to start the countdown to JordanCon 2025!
Mark your calendars for April 25–27, 2025, for the 17th annual JordanCon: The Con of Ravens. Start planning now so you can shake a tailfeather at the dance party. (How many people in all black will it take to make an unkindness of ravens?)

Artist Guest of Honor: Oksana Nedavniaya
Toastmaster: Gerald L. Coleman
Watch the JordanCon social media (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram), Discord channel, and blog for important announcements and fun information about the upcoming JordanCon.
