Concinnity 95 was a literary and media science fiction convention, also containing horror and fantasy, a professional banquet, writers' seminar, and other assorted programming items.
Instead of a program booklet, they published The Science Fiction and Fantasy and Horror Fan Resource Book in December 1994 to advertise the convention, its constituent member clubs, and to raise funds for UNICEF.
Guest was Robert O'Reilly, actor who played Klingon leader Gowron from Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. He attended along with members of AURORA, his fan club, who held one of their official club meetings at the convention.
As well as a Professional Banquet and Writers' Seminar, The convention itself featured 48 continuous hours of programming, with panels, quizzes, conne3ctions to computer bulletin board forums on CompuServe and Internet (through Australia OnLine), book launch, author signings, dealers, and more.
