List of Conventions in the United States
From BroaDWcast
Revision as of 19:45, 23 December 2023 by John Lavalie (talk | contribs)
- This list of over events contains only conventions where Doctor Who cast or crew attended.
- There were hundreds if not thousands of fan-run gatherings, mini-conventions and events (such as pledge drives) that aren't covered here. Also omitted are Blakes 7 conventions where Terry Nation was the only Doctor Who guest, and events where Douglas Adams, in his capacity as creator of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, was also a guest.
- Large-scale annual events such as San Diego Comic Con and New York Comic Con, which are often attended by Doctor Who actors and production members, are also not included.
- Persons whose names are
struck throughare identified in publicity or other advertising material as attending, but who ultimately did not appear at the event - Additional information, such as convention booklets and advertising flyers, can be found for some of the events on the relevant city / state profile and at the Doctor Who Cuttings Archive
- The Gallifrey One conventions (ongoing since 1990) feature many guests from the TV, audio, print and periferal worlds of Doctor Who, Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures, as well as from other popular SF films and TV series. We have therefore not included everyone in our lists here (but a full roll call of convention guests can be seen at the Gallifrey One Conventions site).
| Date | City | State | Venue | Name (organizers) | Guests | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Apr. 13-15, 1979 | Los Angeles | California | LA Marriott | Los Angeles Science Fiction, Horror and Fantasy Convention | No Doctor Who guests, but continuous videos of the series played in the "Doctor Who Theatre", sponsored by Time-Life and KBSC. Report in Starlog 25 | |
| Dec. 1, 1979 | Los Angeles | California | Continental Hyatt House | The Doctor Who Convention (Gallifreyan Irregulars) | Tom Baker, Graham Williams, Terrance Dicks, Gerry Davis, Don Gallacher (music producer of Mankind's disco version of the theme-tune) | Baker and Williams showed up at the eleventh hour; the studio sessions for Shada had been cancelled and they had nothing else to do that weekend. Video room included The Daemons and Nightmare of Eden 1. Baker stayed until the next day to do a signing at Venice Beach. Extensive con report and interview with Baker in Starlog 34. Interview with Dicks in Starlog 37. Ad in LA Weekly. |
| Mar. 1-2, 1980 | Los Angeles | California | Hyatt Regency | Who 1 (Gallifreyan Irregulars) | Ian Marter, Elisabeth Sladen, Terrance Dicks, Pat Dunlop | Report and interviews in Starlog 42. Sladen's appearance mentioned in the Liverpool Echo. |
| Mar. 22, 1980 | Los Angeles | California | North Hollywood Park | Louise Jameson Weekend (Sirius Productions) | Louise Jameson | Brief mention in the London Evening Standard |
| Mar. 23, 1980 | Los Angeles | California | Wonderworld Books | Louise Jameson Weekend (Sirius Productions) | Louise Jameson | |
| Aug. 14-16, 1981 | Tulsa | Oklahoma | Camelot Hotel | Panopticon West (NADWAS) | Davison had finished recording Kinda the day before. Guests are only there on the 16th, due to an air-traffic controllers strike that delayed their flight. Videos shown include The Edge of Destruction, The Rescue, An Unearthly Child 1. Interviews with JNT and Davison in Fantastic Films 28, Fantasy Empire 4, and Davison in Starlog 62, article in Tulsa World. Con organizer Barbara Elder was interviewed by Variety | |
| Feb. 5-7, 1982 | Fort Lauderdale | Florida | Oceanside Holiday Inn | Omnicon III | John Nathan-Turner, Jeremy Bulloch (Boba Fett), Nicholas Courtney (1st con) | Generic SF convention. It was here that Bulloch hinted to JNT that he'd like to appear in Doctor Who again. It didn't happen. Courtney often spoke of his first-ever US convention where he encountered lots of female fans dressed as the Brigadier. (In his autobiography, "Still Getting Away With It" (2005), Courtney says his first US con was at the Holiday Inn in Fort Lauderdale, in 1982 - soon after he'd finished filming Mawdryn Undead. However, this event was six months before he worked on Mawdryn Undead; we feel sure Courtney is misremembering things. He isn't getting the year wrong and mixing this up with the 1983 Omnicon IV (see below) because he wasn't there; indeed none of the newspaper or fanzine reports on that event mention him. |
| July 16-18, 1982 | Chicago | Illinois | Americana Congress | Panopticon West II | John Nathan-Turner, Sarah Sutton, |
Also known as "Sweatcon". There were between 3,000 and 6,000 attendees each day, and no air-conditioning! Recording on Arc of Infinity had just been completed; Nathan-Turner announced the pre-sale to the US of 78 Peter Davison episodes (i.e. three seasons worth). It was while at this event that Nathan-Turner sounded out Nation for permission to do a Dalek story to close the 20th season. The KRMA documentary Once Upon a Time Lord was filmed. Season 19 shown in video room. Reports in DWM 76 and Fantasy Empire 6. Presumably the interview with JNT in Starlog 62 was conducted here. Preview in the Chicago Tribune. Brief mentions in the Daily Express, the Aberdeen Evening Press and the Liverpool Daily Post. AP photo of Ainley and fans appeared in several newspapers. |
| Aug. 21-22, 1982 | New Orleans | Louisiana | Terrance Dicks | On the morning of 22 August, Dicks was woken by a telephone call from script editor Eric Saward to sound out his availability to write The Five Doctors | ||
| Sept. 18-19, 1982 | Denver | Colorado | Star Con-Denver VI | John Nathan-Turner | It was while at this convention, that Doctor Who Fan Club of America president, Ron Katz, established an "agreement" with John Nathan-Turner for the club to sell "unofficial" DWFCA merchandise. Film-maker David Ryan approached JNT about a 'behind the scenes' documentary for the 20th next year. Castrovalva and Earthshock were shown. | |

Davison - who wore his Doctor's costume - had just completed recording Enlightenment. JNT was at the Con 5-6 Feb only, but stayed on in the US on holiday until 14 Feb. Articles in the Galveston Daily News, Sun-Sentinel and Tallahassee Democrat. Report in Fantasy Empire 1983 Summer Special. |
| Feb. 13, 1983 | Chicago | Illinois | New Fantasy Shop | John Nathan-Turner | More of a signing than a convention, photos of event HERE. A group of fans had earlier staged their own version of The Five Doctors; they appeared at the event still in costume, and the group was photographed with JNT. (After being in the US for over a week, JNT flew back to the UK on 14 Feb.) Photos of Nathan-Turner with the costumed fans appear in the Radio Times 20th Anniversary Special. Photo of JNT in DWM 83. | |
| Feb. 19-20, 1983 | Chicago | Illinois | New Fantasy Shop | Peter Davison, Sandra Dickinson | More of a signing than a convention; signing sessions ran from noon-2pm, then 4-6pm on the first day, and noon-2pm, 3-5pm on the second.

Pertwee gave JNT some candy called "Mounds", asking him to give these to his old friend Ingrid Pitt, who JNT would be seeing a few days later at rehearsals for Warriors of the Deep. Report in Whovian Times, Oct. 1983. The interviews with Pertwee that appeared in Starlog 79, and Sladen seen in Starlog 77 were likely conducted during the July tour.

On 25 November 1983, at the end of the UK broadcast of The Five Doctors, Peter Davison was briefly interviewed by Terry Wogan (filmed on 14 November), and said he was flying off to a US convention in Chicago. On 28 November, various UK news bulletins, such as BBC 1 News and Newsround reported on the event, one of which was used in the 29 November edition of Video Dispatch in New Zealand. Also on 29 November, Entertainment Tonight reported on the convention. On 3 December, Entertainment This Week ran the same story, but with an edit that omitted the majority of the clips from The Five Doctors. That same edition of ETW aired in New Zealand on 17 December 1983, and in Australia on 8 January 1984. The existing elements of Shada were shown for the first time.

| June 15-16, 1985 | Philadelphia | Pennsylvania | Centre Hotel | Starlog SF, Horror & Fantasy Festival (Creation) | Janet Fielding, (Nicholas Courtney?) | General SF.

| June 29-30, 1985 | Tampa | Florida | Hyatt Regency | Creation | Mark Strickson | |
| July 12-14, 1985 | New Orleans | Louisiana | International Hotel | Panopticon New Orleans/1985 North American Time Festival | Colin Baker & Marion Wyatt, John Nathan-Turner, Nicholas Courtney, Gary Downie, Anthony Ainley?, Ian Levine | Theme was Mardi Gras.

| Aug. 2-4, 1985 | Tampa | Florida | Sheraton-Tampa Motor Hotel | Tampa Bay Who Fest 1985 | This appears to be the event later dubbed "The Convention of Death"; only 150 people attended, and the guests didn't get paid. (It was reported in several fanzines in late 1985 - such as DWB 26 - that Colin Baker and JNT had been to a poorly-attended convention in Tampa; there were only three cons held in Tampa in 85, and the one-off Who Fest is the best fit - but see also Spokane in August 1986.) | |
