Fantasycon VI was held October 3-5, 1980 at the Imperial Hotel in Birmingham, UK. The GoH was Ramsey Campbell and the Guest Artist was Jim Fitzpatrick. Karl Edward Wagner was MC.

The convention was dedicated to the memory of Dave McFerran, 1954-1980.

Small Mammal 38 (February 1980) originally listed the convention for February 22-24, while 39 (March 1980) said: "Fantasycon did not take place last month. The British Fantasy Society seems to have undergone the kind of collapse which will be only too familiar to 'old time' members of the British Science Fiction Association. Fortunately reconstruction seems underway already and a Fantasycon will take place this year, probably in August."
