The Unseelie Gathering
An immersive dark fantasy event for over 18's
Once known as Fantasy Con Scotland, the story now enters its next chapter – The Unseelie Gathering, an immersive dark fantasy event for over 18’s.
Once a year, creatures from every world – fae, demons, vampires, witches, wolves, and mortals alike – are drawn together in a place where no one can remain neutral.
Three ancient families – The Withered, The Flameborn, and The Nightweavers – clash in a timeless rivalry, each vying for the Thorned Crown.
On arrival, you must pledge your loyalty to one family. From there, your story begins. Complete quests, uncover secrets, face challenges, or simply raise a tankard in the tavern. Every action you take helps tip the balance of power. At the end of the day, the points are counted, and only one family will seize the Crown until the Gathering returns.
This is more than a convention – this is a living story.
On arrival, you must swear your loyalty to one family.
