Just like the topic says, except for Metrocon, Megacon and Jacon, because I already know about those. Thanks in advance.

Friendly little con (less than 150 people), and they let you crash on the floor!

Other than those, there's FITcon in Melbourne (usually around April), and the site is http://www.fitcon.info/. Also, coming up in August is Anime Festival Orlando (http://www.animefestivalorlando.com).
