![]() ![]() E3 will be all online starting June 12th for four days of gaming news and releases. ![]() FanimeCon 2021 in San Jose, CA, was canceled.There are a few other major conventions who have made decisions like: I think it’s safe to say they may hold off until 2022 since the virtual convention idea works so well for them. Wizard World did have two events scheduled for 2021 in Chicago and Philadephia, but neither of these events has tickets available for purchase. I’ve heard many uplifting moments between fans and celebrities via these 1:1’s, which really brings out the reason why these conventions are so important. While it might not be the same as an in-person con, it did take the sting out of the pandemic. They have had the ability to be able to buy autographs and 1:1 videos with their favorite celebrities mid-pandemic from the comfort of their own home. Frankly, these virtual events have been a huge hit with fans. This is one convention that thought quickly and smartly. Wizard World has survived this pandemic by offering free virtual events and panel series, and celebrity favorites. It’s tentatively scheduled the events for the following dates: PAX is another convention system that has decided to go ahead with in-person events. They also have the right to remove you at any time if they think you may “pose a danger.” Fans really have no information on whether temperature checks, mask requirements, or even restrictions on celebrity interactions like Reed Pop have made clear for their conventions. ![]() The second time is a general statement that by buying the ticket you are assuming the risk and won’t hold Creation Entertainment at fault for catching COVID or the common cold. The first statement is that these tickets are non-refundable even in the event of COVID. The only mention of COVID on the entire website is in the FAQ. It will be a Supernatural Convention with Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki, and Misha Collins, all scheduled to be in attendance. On the flip side, Creation Convention, the home to Supernatural, Stranger Things, and Star Trek conventions intends to still have its first in-person convention in Burlingame, California, this June. If it were to rain or storm that weekend, it would be an utter disaster. ECCC usually uses two separate locations for this convention which are a good distance apart. As someone who has been in Emerald City Comic Con before and visited Seattle in December, this isn’t ideal. Thankfully they can use SuperCon as a test run before the even bigger NYCC Comic-Con a month later to fix any obvious problems. It also will be limiting the number of people in each building and the number of tickets sold. Reed Pop is already warning its fans there will be a strict: no handshakes, high-fives, or hugs policy during the convention.
