(Did you mean the 1988 Eastercon?)

Follycon (and they insist its not Follycon 2) was the 2018 Eastercon, held March 30-April 2, 2018 (Easter) in Harrogate, UK. GoHs: Kieron Gillen, Christina Lake, Nnedi Okorafor, and Kim Stanley Robinson.

The committee were Alison Scott, Steve Davies, Michael Abbott, Caroline Mullan, Alice Lawson, Phil Nanson, Kari Sperring and Paul Taylor. A great success, during a very wet weekend. The bid for 2020 for Manchester had to fold, no formal replacement was put forward, but a scratch committee hope to present a one year bid next year for Concentric2020 to be held in the Birmingham NEC Metropole.

The convention had factsheets rather than PRs, and the newsletter was called Foolscap.
