The full breakdown of voting will appear here as soon as we get the data from Aussiecon 4.
Because this year’s Worldcon is in Australia, many of the nominees can’t attend. Some of them, however, can make it as far as Atlanta, and Dragon*Con has kindly laid on an event at which those nominees, and anyone else interested, can follow the action from Melbourne.
The event will take place over breakfast in Kafe Köbenhavn. For further details and a list of which nominees will be in attendance, see The Daily Dragon.
We are still sorting out details of our online coverage, which is dependent on exactly what level of connectivity we can get inside the auditorium. At the very least, the folks at Dragon*Con, and you at home, will be able to follow the announcements in the Twitter feeds from ourselves and Aussiecon 4.
From the Aussiecon 4 news feed:
Aussiecon 4 received a record number of nominations for the 2010 Hugo Awards: 864, up from 799 nomination ballots at Anticipation in 2009 and 483 at Denvention 3 in 2008. This year’s Hugo Award nominations will be announced 22:00 BST, Easter Sunday 4 April, at Odyssey 2010, this year’s Eastercon, and covered live on the Aussiecon 4 Twitter feed. Balloting for the Hugo Awards will commence thereafter and will conclude on 31 July at midnight, US PDT. The Hugo Awards Ceremony will be held at Aussiecon 4 in Melbourne on Sunday, 5 September 2010.
You can find the Aussiecon 4 Twitter feed here.
For further details about the announcement event, see the Eastercon web site.
Because we get a number of inquiries from publishers about the Hugo awards, we have created a special information page for them. You can find it here.
