Join us in the world of Alternate History to explore the future of worlds that never were, but you wish could have been. Within our panels and programming, you will learn about the cogs and clockworks of steampunk, historic romance and alternate history fiction, retrofuturism, and any antique reality to explore with imagination you can think up. From the makers who bring wonders of a bygone age back to life before your eyes, to costumers who look to have stepped out of a Victorian Sci-Fi Penny Dreadful, to authors of tales spanning time, space, and all forms of alternate realities, this track has it all.

Is the gears and brass of steampunk or the combustion of dieselpunk not enough? Then jaunt to the dystopian future of post-apocalyptic survivalists or even grim corporate world cyberpunk, and all points between, our track has fun with possible pasts, futures, and even the variants of present-day.

If you can imagine a time when things were crafted with care and individuality, proper manners and etiquette was the norm, and wonder lay around every street corner, or World Wars fought with jetpacks and giant tanks, or even megacorp cityscapes on the horizon, you will be at home with the explorers, inventors, artisans, mechanics, pulp heroes, hackers and adventurers of the Alternate History Track.
