Because no groups filed to host Westercon 75, selection of the site of the 2023 Westercon devolved upon the 2021 Westercon Business Meeting held at Westercon 73 (in conjunction with Loscon 47) in Los Angeles on November 27, 2021. The Business Meeting voted to appoint Westercon 74 Chair Kevin Standlee and Westercon 74 Head of Hospitality Lisa Hayes as a committee to select a site and committee to run Westercon 75. Any site in North America west of 104° west longitude or in Hawaii is eligible to host Westercon 75.

To submit a bid to the “Standlee-Hayes Commission” to host Westercon 75, write to Kevin Standlee at chair@Westercon74.org, or send a paper application to Lisa Hayes at PO Box 242, Fernley NV 89408. Include information about the proposed site, the proposed dates, and the proposed operating committee.

Should the committee be unable to make a determination for a site for Westercon 75 by Westercon 74 in Tonopah (July 1-4, 2022), and assuming that no bid files to host Westercon 76, the committee expects to recommend that the owners of the Westercon service mark (the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society) put the convention on hiatus until such time as they can determine a pair of sites to host Westercons 75 and 76 in order to restart the convention.
