Gatecon is a fan convention centered on the Stargate television franchise. The first Gatecon was held in 2000 in Vancouver, Canada, with the convention being held annually until 2008. Since 2008 the event has been held sporadically. The event has included tours of the Stargate SG-1 (1997–2006), Stargate Atlantis (2004–2009) and Stargate Universe (2010–2011) sets at The Bridge Studios.

A number of different charities have been supported by Gatecon, including Make A Wish Foundation, Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and Cystic Fibrosis Canada, with MGM and the shows creators providing props and memorabilia to be auctioned off.[1]
