Welcome to the Known World Newcomers Symposium 2024!

Event Registrations are now OPEN! Register via our quick and easy form here.

The Known World Newcomers Symposium (KWNS from here forward) will be held virtually via Zoom on November 30, 2024. The lobby will open starting at 7:00AM central standard time (CST), with classes starting at 8:00AM CST.


The Symposium will host a full day of classes teaching about the SCA. From who we are and where we came from, to all of the different kinds of activities we participate in, how to get started in your local area, and much much more.


While there will be a focus on introducing newcomers to the SCA, there will also be classes for aspiring chatelaines, networking opportunities with people from the entire “Known World”, and a great knowledge base that should be valuable for anyone involved with the SCA.


Share the Symposium information with your friends! We have a handy flyer available here for you to share with all.
