February 14 -17 will see the 26th and FINAL PantheaCon being mounted. It’s being held at the San Jose Doubletree Hotel, 2050 Gateway Place, San Jose CA. The site says:
“PantheaCon is held in San Jose, California over President’s Day weekend each year. We are a conference for Pagans, Heathens, Indigenous Non-European and many of diverse beliefs Over 2000 people attend more than 200 presentations that range from rituals to workshops and from classes to concerts. In additions to fabulous Vendor hall, many diverse groups host Hospitality rooms for meet and greets. Established in 1994 it is currently the largest Pagan gathering and convention in the world.”
“This year in 2020 will be the 26th and Final PantheaCon. I once had a vision of the many tribes of Earth religions and neo-pagans coming together to network and share our varied views of spirituality. That vision came true for many years, but as time passed it grew bigger and the viewpoints diverged. I still hope PantheaCon has been of benefit to many individuals who met like-minded friends at it.”
Preliminary Schedule for PantheaCon 2020 (12.5.19)
“This is the first draft of the Schedule. It does not include the scheduling for the extra wine rooms we have this year, and the
program for Monday is also not very complete yet. We will be adding new events as the usual number drop out. If you do not see your
event offering here, it’s because we have not contacted all those who might be on the WAIT LIST. Some Wait Listed events will be
added as need arises. All declined events will be notified in the next few weeks.”
