WELCOME TO THE VULCON / GALAXYFEST / SPOCK DAYS • ARCHIVES
THIS SITE RECORDS THE HISTORY OF VULCAN'S STAR TREK CONVENTION.
OVER THE YEARS IT HAS EVOLVED, SOMETIMES CALLED "SPOCK DAYS" AND SOMETIMES "VUL-CON", SOMETIMES "GALAXYFEST". REGARDLESS OF ITS NAME, IT'S ALWAYS BEEN A GREAT CELEBRATION OF ALL THINGS STAR TREK!

- THE TOWN OF VULCAN DIDN'T GET THEIR LICENCE FROM CBS/PARAMOUNT UNTIL 2006 (?) SO UNTIL THEY HAD THEIR LICENCE, THEY COULDN'T USE TRADEMARKED/COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL & BRANDING FROM THE STAR TREK FRANCHISE FOR THE CONVENTION. HENCE, THE EARLY YEARS OF THE CONVENTION WERE NAMED "VULCON" AND "GALAXYFEST".
- SPOCK DAYS IS PRIMARILY A BALL TOURNAMENT (COMPLETE WITH BEER GARDEN) & PARADE THAT ALSO HAPPENS IN VULCAN IN JUNE/JULY. SPOCK DAYS HAS ITS OWN ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITTEE (SEE SPOCKDAYS.COM) SEPARATE FROM VULCAN TOURISM WHO GENERALLY RUNS THE STAR TREK CONVENTION. OVER THE YEARS, SOMETIMES SPOCK DAYS AND VULCON HAVE RUN ON THE SAME WEEKEND, AND SOMETIMES SEPARATELY.
