2024 Hugo Awards Voter Packet Available

Glasgow 2024 has announced the availability of a Hugo Awards Voter Packet so that members of the 2024 Worldcon eligible to vote on the final ballot of the 2024 Hugo Awards can see the shortlisted works. As announced in their press release:

Members can access the Voter Packet via the convention website at https://glasgow2024.org/hugo-awards/.

The Hugo Awards Voter Packet is a collection of material made available free of charge to Worldcon Members to assist them in deciding how to vote in the Final Ballot for the 2024 Hugo Awards, the Lodestar Award for Best Young Adult Book, and the Astounding Award for Best New Writer.

The reading material, artwork, and videos have been graciously provided by the finalists and their publishers and other copyright holders. We are incredibly grateful for their generosity.

The material is available to download for members’ personal use only from now until the end of the Hugo voting period. Members who wish to take advantage of the Voter Packet should therefore do so before voting closes on Saturday, 20th July 2024, 20:17 GMT.

(Glasgow 2024 has chosen to close voting at 20:17 GMT on 20th July because that will be 55 years *to the minute* since Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin first landed on the moon in 1969).

We wish all our members happy reading, viewing, playing and watching!
