The Australian Discworld Convention

The Australian Discworld Convention is a 3-day event run by fans for fans of author Sir Terry Pratchett, famous for his humorous fantasy books - especially the Discworld series. The convention includes panels, special guests, workshops, creative events, costumes and a Gala Dinner, all focused on Terry Pratchett's works.

Our next convention is:

Nullus Anxietas X

The Australian Discworld Convention

10-12 April 2026 - Stamford Plaza Sydney Airport Hotel and Conference Centre

A Celebration of the Witches

Step through the portal to the fantasy realm of Sydney and the year 2026 for the tenth Australian Discworld Convention.

All the witches have their own story and like all good stories... there's a twist!

Want to be involved but not sure how? Become a witch in training. Learn to be as nosey as Nanny, as confident as Perdita X and, to just do the job in front of you, like Tiffany.

Never been to a Discworld Convention before?

The convention is a chance to meet other fans of Sir Terry Pratchett, have fun and share the humour of the books. You might like to dress up as a favourite character - many attendees do, but it is not compulsory.

We aim to pack a lot of fun into 3 days, running multiple events simultaneously and finishing late in the evening on Friday and Saturday.

The conventions are run by fans and while not-for-profit, money is raised for a chosen charity via the auction. Like Terry's books, the conventions are family-friendly.
