Although the Roaring 20s provided much that was far from the tastes or manners of the Victorians, as time travelers we get to enjoy the privilege of sampling any decade or era we choose!  And since next year is the year 2020 we at Geneva Steam Convention are inviting you all to join us in celebrating the return of the 20s.  Keep in mind, time travelers aren't limited to Flappers, Gangsters and Sugar Daddies.  What era do you love to bring to Steampunk?  Get those creative caps on and dive into history to see what the 20s inspires in you!

Geneva Steam Convention had its debut in the year 2015, and has been offering a wonderful introduction to the world of Steampunk every year since. Our convention is a low-key gathering of our Steampunk Family and has something for all ages.  At our convention, YOU are the story!  Bring your friends, bring your family and meet people, from old acquaintances to new. Come see what creativity, dedication and some Maker's Ingenuity can create in any genre!

Are you new to Steampunk? 
Wondering what's with all the gears and goggles?

One of the questions we get asked most often is "What is this thing called Steampunk?"  According to Urban Dictionary, "Steampunk is a subgenre of speculative fiction, usually set in an anachronistic Victorian or quasi-Victorian alternate history setting. It could be described by the slogan 'What the past would look like if the future had happened sooner.' It includes fiction with science fiction, fantasy or horror themes." The term was coined by an author in the late 1980s and is associated with the mechanics and pilots that manned airships in an alternative reality described in a work of fiction.  (This is where the goggles and the gears came into play.)  The idea of Steampunk as a Cosplay genre is to blend the aesthetics, technology and history of Victorian England into an alternative world through innovative engineering and more advanced technologies than were available.  One thing is for sure, in this Cosplay environment the participants agree to be in "polite society" for a weekend sharing their creativity in ensembles and alternate characters.  For more information check out Wikipedia here.
