(Press Release) ATLANTA – Aug. 6, 2024 – Dragon Con’s Dragon Awards, a fan’s choice awards program to recognize the very best in science fiction and fantasy literature, comics, gaming, and filmed entertainment, has published its 2024 ballot.

Winners of the Dragon Awards are selected by fans – not just Dragon Con members or convention attendees – and voting is free.  You can view the ballot here.

“The goal of Dragon Awards is to use the power of the people – the fans who read it, watch it, or play it – to recognize the best properties in science fiction and fantasy,” said convention co-chair David Cody.

More than 7,000 fans cast ballots for Dragon Award winners in 2023, selected from among 67 properties in 11 categories covering the full range of fiction, comics, television, movies, video gaming, and tabletop gaming.

All voting is done electronically and only via a ballot emailed to each confirmed voter. To vote, fans must first register on the Dragon Awards website: Register Here. Ballots are then emailed in batches every few days through August.

Fans have until Friday, Aug. 30 at 11:59 p.m., eastern, to register. Voting ends 24-hours later on Saturday, Aug. 31 at 11:59 p.m., also eastern.

Winners will be announced on Sunday, Sept. 1 at Dragon Con in downtown Atlanta. The annual Labor Day convention is scheduled this year from Aug. 29 to Sept. 2.

The ballot was selected in an open nomination process, in which more than 5,000 fans participated. Using the dedicated Dragon Awards website, fans were invited to nominate one (and only one) of their favorite properties in any or all the award categories. Nominations ran from November 2023 until July 19, 2024. The best and most popular of the nominated properties were elevated to the ballot.
