It's a filk convention, which means most of the programming will be musical. There's also a lot of hanging out and chatting. For Shabbos logistics, you should get in touch with the Kosher Konspiracy (specifically, ladymondegreen or batyatoon, who I can get you contact information for, if they don't contact you here first), who have it down to a science. We generally join them for Friday dinner and havdalah, but you might want to ask about going in with them for food for the whole weekend. You could also come motzei Shabbos, depending on the train schedule — a lot of the best singing at a filk con often happens late Saturday night, and on into the wee hours of the morning.
It's fun. The filk community is pretty heimish. You will meet nifty people and hear nifty songs. It's perfectly fine to come just to listen, or to bring songs that aren't science-fiction related.
