Estimating Chicon 7 Attendance

The final membership statistics for Chicon 7 are not yet public, however the daily newzine released on Sunday afternoon gave the latest count as 4,776 members present and 5,133 attending memberships sold.

That is enough to make Chicon 7 the largest Worldcon since 2006, though it’s not likely in the remaining day-and-a-half the con came anywhere close to equaling Chicon 2000’s 5,794 warm bodies.
