We are Cymera, Scotland’s Festival of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Writing! Since 2019 we have been providing a space for readers and writers to come together in celebration of genre fiction. At Cymera you’ll find author panels and book signings, writing workshops, open mics, live performances, bookish quizzes, tabletop gaming spaces and so much more.

Here at Cymera we value accessibility, inclusivity and diversity. Each year we host our Festival and Writers’ Conference both in-person and online, to allow as many writers and readers to join us as possible.

 

What a weekend!

Thank you to everyone who joined us in-person and online at Cymera 2024.
