It is with a heavy heart that we must announce the cancellation of Gen Con 2020. The safety of our attendees, exhibitors & staff are of the utmost importance to us & we cannot in good conscience host a large gathering while doing so could threaten the health of so many. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🧵" title="Thread" aria-label="Emoji: Thread">

Information about our decision to cancel, along with badge and hotel information can be found on the website: https://www.gencon.com/press/updates-gen-con-covid19">https://www.gencon.com/press/upd... & an email w/ detailed instructions has been sent to 2020 badge holders.

Gen Con has a long history, and this is the first time we haven& #39;t held a show in more than 50 years. Our CEO Peter Adkison shared some thoughts about that in a blog post today: https://gencon.blog/2020/05/19/message-peter-adkison-cancellation-gen-con-2020/">https://gencon.blog/2020/05/1...

This has been a rough start to 2020 for sure, but we& #39;re looking forward to seeing your wonderful faces in 2021. In the meantime, we hope you& #39;ll join us for http://gencon.online"> http://gencon.online , a virtual convention experience celebrating what brings us together. Stay safe & game on, friends!
