Nah, I think that was in New York.

I know Robert Silverberg has attended them ALL. He did a speech about it
before the Hugos last year.

Thats like 50+years.

I believe I read in Analog or Asimov that the first SF World Con was there
as well.

The World Science Fiction Convention (in one of it's rare trips outside the
USA). 4000-5000 SF fans will descend on glasgow for 5 Days from all over the
globe :-) along with large amounts of authors, publishers etc.  The HUGO
awards are given out annually at Worldcon.
