Several other Memphis-area conventions and groups also have promotional tables at ShadowCon. ShadowCon is held the first or second weekend of January, depending on the calendar. While ShadowCon is organized mostly by members of the Society for Creative Anachronism, the event is not officially recognized, sponsored, or sanctioned by SCA. Other local area groups and organizations also help with various Con activities. The first ShadowCon was held in January 1997. (en)
