Steamcon was one of the largest steampunk conventions/symposia in the United States[citation needed]. Located in the Seattle area of Washington state, Steamcon held its first symposium in 2009.
Steamcon grew out of the desire of its founders to host a steampunk event in greater Seattle. The idea[1] to start the event was hatched at the local science fiction convention Norwescon in 2008 when multiple people expressed an interest[2] to hold an event devoted exclusively to steampunk. Although the idea for a Seattle area Steampunk convention referred to as SteamCon was first used as the basis for a panel at Anglicon 6 in Seattle in May 1993.[3]
