Comic Con International, the parent company for both San Diego Comic Con, and WonderCon Anaheim, released the following statement.
To protect public health and slow the rate of transmission of COVID-19, the California Department of Public Health announced a recommendation that gatherings and events of more than 250 people should either be postponed or cancelled. Comic-Con (organizer of WonderCon) will abide by this recommendation. Therefore WonderCon Anaheim, scheduled for April 10-12, 2020 in Anaheim, California, will be postponed until a later date. We will begin processing refunds for badge purchases in the coming days.
We continue to work closely with officials in San Diego and at this time no decision has been made regarding the rescheduling of Comic-Con slated to take place this summer; July 23-26, 2020. We urge everyone to follow the recommendations set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and your local health officials.
WonderCon Anaheim – STATEMENT FROM COMIC-CON REGARDING COVID-19
This means that there will not be a WonderCon Anaheim 2020, held this April, and we are not sure when it will be, however we hope to hear more news in the near future about this, and their sister con San Diego Comic Con.
Hopefully this clears up soon, but everyone needs to do their part to stop the spread, by practicing good hygiene and limiting gatherings. We at The Con Togs know this is upsetting but its “for the good of all of us.” like Glados said.
Stay tuned here at The Con Togs for more Fandom and Con News, as hopefully there is more and its good.
