MileHiCon is an annual science fiction and fantasy convention held in Denver, Colorado in October. Although it has a primarily literary focus, it also has an art show, a vendors' room, Critter Crunch (similar to Robot Wars), Critter Float-illa (robotic competition in the hotel pool), a video room, an anime room, a masquerade, gaming, a bat'leth tournament, and programming on science, writing, literary, and media. It runs its own track of child-friendly, interactive programming and also hosts the Avistrum Academy of Sorcery. It is run by MileHiCon, Inc., a Colorado not-for-profit corporation, and donates money each year to local literacy programs.
