The Locus Awards will be viewable here at 3:00 p.m. June 25, 2022.
The Locus Awards Weekend will be a virtual event again in 2022! We so miss seeing all of you, but our hotel is gone and we’ll need to do some research before we are in person again! Suggestions for new venues welcome!
Join in the fun — we’d love to see you — and thank you, as always, for your support. Regular memberships are $45 and include all events, an exclusive Locus Awards 2022 t-shirt (or for the first 120 who choose it, a limited edition of D.A. by Connie Willis), and access to 6 months of digital Locus Magazine. Online events include readings, panels, the donut salon, an online hangout, and, of course, the Locus Awards Ceremony, emceed by Connie Willis. See the 2022 Locus Awards Top Ten Finalists. We will update this page with events as they are scheduled. Here is a link to our 2021 Locus Awards writeup, where you can see how the awards events go. This year will follow the same program in general, with a few upgrades!
Regular ticketholders will have their membership gifts shipped to their door (extra shipping fee outside of the US), and will receive access to a digital subscription of Locus magazine, February through August of 2022.
Here is our awesome program PDF featuring art from Shaun Tan!

SLIDING SCALE MEMBERSHIP: The pandemic has been so hard on everyone, and we realized we needed another membership level to accommodate for financial hardship. We are now offering a sliding-scale membership starting at $15 for people who would otherwise be unable to afford to attend. This is an attendance plus digital subscription membership, with access to all Locus Awards online events and the digital Locus issues that come with a regular membership, but not a T-shirt, book, or print program.
If you previously purchased a full-price ticket and wish to downgrade to the sliding scale membership due to financial hardship, please email us at locus@locusmag.com
