It is with deepest regret that we must announce the cancellation of the 2019 Geek.kon Convention.
Over the years, the staff of Geek.kon have always enjoyed putting our best effort into bringing as much geek culture as we could into one place and sharing it with our attendees. Geek.kon could not be what it was without everyone's love and desire to share our passions with each other.
However, in the last couple of years, Geek.kon has found itself struggling with issues both financial and internal. At the end of the 2017 convention year, it was looking as if a following year would not be possible. Despite last year's change in management and consultation of business professionals in hopes of repairing the damage done in previous years, the flooding in 2018 a week before the convention was the final blow.
After exhausting what options we had available, it was concluded that Geek.kon 2019 was not viable. As such, we plan to take a year off, re-evaluate, restructure and hopefully come back better than ever. We will be working as quickly as possible to refund all attendees, artists, and vendors who had pre-paid for the 2019 year
Again, we are deeply sorry about having to cancel this year's convention and any unfulfilled expectations this may cause. Even without our event this year, we hope people will continue to share their geeky passions with one another and continue to loudly and proudly 'Get Your Geek On!'
