Sign up for PSFS announcements
Welcome to the website for PSFS, the Philadelphia Science Fiction Society!
We are a membership-based organization of science fiction and fantasy fans based in Philadelphia, PA. PSFS had its first meeting in 1936, making us one of the oldest science fiction groups in the world. We are open to anyone interested in science fiction, fantasy, or horror, in all media from the written word to movies, TV, comics, games and gaming, and visual art.
We’d love to hear from you! To ask a question and tell us more about your interests, email info@psfs.org.
Our next meeting will be our annual Hugo Review Panel on Friday, July 18 at 7:30 pm on Zoom! Email info@psfs.org for Zoom link.
The Hugo Review Panel offers a lively discussion of the Hugo nominations in all major categories, in a panel format. Panelists who have read or viewed ALL this year’s nominated works share their opinions on the work and pick a favorite in each category. This gives people who are voting in the Hugos (and anyone who attends) a more informed sense of work they haven’t read, in advance of the voting deadline and the announcement of winners at Worldcon in August.
Here’s the rest of our 2025 meeting schedule:
- August – no meeting
- Friday Sept 12 in person, guest TBA
- Friday Oct 10 virtual, guest TBA
- Friday Nov 21 at PHILCON
- Friday Dec 12 in person, guest TBA
