SDCC 2020 Cancelled
 

For the first time in its 50-year history San Diego Comic Convention (SDCC), the organizers behind the annual pop culture celebration, announced today with deep regret that there will be no Comic-Con in 2020. The event will instead return to the San Diego Convention Center from July 22-25, 2021.

Recognizing that countless attendees save and plan for its conventions each year, and how many exhibitors and stakeholders rely upon its events for a major portion of their livelihood, they had hoped to delay this decision in anticipation that COVID-19 concerns might lessen by summer. Continuous monitoring of health advisories and recent statements by the Governor of California have made it clear that it would not be safe to move forward with plans for this year.

Similarly, WonderCon Anaheim, which was to have been held April 10-12, 2020 will return to the Anaheim Convention Center from March 26-28, 2021.

In addition to their conventions, Comic-Con has been planning a major renovation of Balboa Park’s Federal Building to be completed for the grand opening of the Comic-Con Museum in the summer of 2021. However, the COVID-19 situation has had an effect on those efforts as well. As such, they will be rephasing the Museum’s initially planned major renovations, but will not scale back the experience to be offered to visitors upon the Museum’s grand opening. They anticipate releasing building plans illustrating the Museum’s transformation and sharing more information about those efforts in the coming months.

SDCC also announced that individuals who purchased badges for Comic-Con 2020 will have the option to request a refund or transfer their badges to Comic-Con 2021. All 2020 badge holders will receive an email within the next week with instructions on how to request a refund. Exhibitors for Comic-Con 2020 will also have the option to request a refund or transfer their payments to Comic-Con 2021 and will also receive an email within the next week with instructions on how to process their request.

In the next few days onPeak, Comic-Con’s official hotel affiliate, will be canceling all hotel reservations and refunding all deposits made through them. There is no need for anyone who booked through onPeak to take any action, including trying to cancel their reservations online or contacting the company via phone as the process will be handled automatically. Those who booked rooms through onPeak will be notified when refunds have been completed.

“Extraordinary times require extraordinary measures and while we are saddened to take this action, we know it is the right decision,” said David Glanzer, spokesperson for the organization. “We eagerly look forward to the time when we can all meet again and share in the community we all love and enjoy.”

It was to be expected.

Wow! I kept wondering about this. Also, Heroes Con on June 19th. Its not changed yet. May have to use our annual convention budgets on Ebay. Or do some virtual convention like a coworker was telling me Funko does.

and u can thank the crooked democrats and china/bill gates for staging this whole pandemic global lockdown bs for global takeover in efforts to push their vaccines and totalitarianism. all these corrupt elite politicians and powerful hollywood need to be taken down before things get worse. the mainsteam media has lied to us about pretty much everything for years. the truth will surface

Christ dude stop watching Fox News

people have died from this you insensitve prick

Someone’s been sniffing the bath salts...

how is that insensitive? thousands die from the flu or car accidents every year, im not saying the corona virus isnt real, but they are using it as an excuse to force everyone to stay home in fear of a virus that has 98% survival rate, so we cant have mass gatherings like sdcc. so all of our constitutional rights go flying out the window. its all about control. bill gates (the guy who recently had plans to block the sun) has wanted to decrease the world population for years now. predicts the virus in 2015, and now hes working on a vaccine for it? its called digital id2020. now even the mainstream media are investigating the virus being created in wuhan lab.

I kind of figured a lot of the conventions would be this year, but still a shame.


To think back before New Years people had hoped that the futuristic sounding year 2020 would be a good one...and then it's a total bust. Dammit, we only get it once. >.<




edit: So.... it's not the 5G that caused it?

Less tinfoil more hand wash:roll:

So sorry to be blunt, but you have no clue what you are talking about. So about 90 people die in the U.S everyday from car accidents. over 600 people have died in NY city each day the past few days alone in one city. Also this is nothing like the flu. So viruses are broken-down into 4 categories. High Transmission, Low Transmission, High Mortality, Low Mortality. The flu is High Transmission and Low Mortality. This virus, Covid-19 is High Transmission and High Mortality which is the most lethal kind of virus. So the mortality rate for flu is about .1% and swine flu /2%. Covid-19 has a 4%-5% mortality rate worldwide and was up to a staggering 7% mortality rate in Italy. Also we have a vaccine for the flu that gives us antibodies that make the flu very manageable, unfortunately we do not have a vaccine yet for this virus and our bodies have not antibodies, bc we have never come in contact with this virus before.
So please stop spreading false information and fake news.

yeah, go ahead and believe everything the mainstream media news tells you. i’m done with y’all, can’t fix stupid

Was the Spanish flu also fabricated by a rich guy? Cholera? The Black Death? Or just Covid-19 cause whatever clown circus that feeds you idiot-juice is peddling conspiracy bs?

The only thing needing to be "fixed" is some people lacking the trait of judging between things that are likely and unlikely to be true. Most, prob like 99%, crazy conspiracies fall into the "unlikely" category... highly unlikely.

but there is evidence, just google it...

Will we need to reopen the country at some point? Yes. Will it be as soon as would be best? No. Will/can the number of people with coronavirus need to be 0 before it reopens? Also no. And that's the part I think that needs to dawn on people.

:lol: I am not getting this information from mainstream media :lol: I studied the pathology of disease as well as the origin of disease to obtain my bachelors. :lol: I know the basics of human biology, pathology and disease.

I think most do realize that, but the transmission and rate of new cases needs to be low enough to remain that way. :ohwell: Hopefully that will be sooner than later, but god only knows. Depends on if the public wants to cooperate and help make it so.

I'm sure if I looked hard enough I could also Google up some "evidence" that Bigfoot also has a hand in it, but does it make it true...

Yep! Finally someone gets it! They want to get everybody Vaxxed (starting next year) which will have the virus strain in it. Sadly, people are too stupid to see it because they believe everything the F-ing TV and Media tells them. The Covid19 even has a patent on it. (I've seen the documents and whose names are attached to it and who profits from it aka FAUCI)...Bill gates has even stated publicly that he wants to reduce the population (See the Georgia Guidestones as a stated goal of keeping humanity under 500,000,000) and He wants everyone vaccinated. But you are dealing with brain dead people who thinks its all just some conspiracy. People will line up like sheep to get a vaccine that will ultimately kill you (containing the live virus strain,mercury,alluminum,Thirmerisol and other poisons that destroy your immune system). But everyone believes in the religion of Psuedo-science and OBEY like the good wage slaves that they are. Men today have been bred into pussies and easily bow down to their masters and sadly have been indoctrinated by the very things they love. You are not alone! MANY are waking up! and will FIGHT against these tyrants who want kill us what they call useless eaters.

And the crazy keeps growing

https://www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/co...sal/index.html
They used to use a small amount of mercury bc it prevented bacteria from growing inside the vaccine. Also Vaccine have either a dead version of the virus which cannot reproduce or a modified version of the virus with a "death chain" in which the virus cannot reproduce and dies when it becomes too big.

Also you don't know what Pseudo-Science is.... You are incorrectly using the word/term.

Serious question do you know how vaccines work or how the body immune system works???

Also do you know what the Covid virus is???? Like seriously do you??? Covid-19 has been around for a long time you just didn't know about it bc it used to not affect humans, but bats.

Lastly if you are going to claim something please provide evidence. I would like to see your sources on your information.
