Comic-Con is officially cancelled for 2020
Being that Comic-Con attracts people from Baja as well as the rest of the world to San Diego, I share this email I just read...
Comic-Con Museum Charter Members and supporters,
Comic-Con International is officially cancelling the 2020 San Diego Comic-Con, marking the first time in 50 years that the show will not go on. It is
the right thing to do. Comic-Con wants to do all we can to fight the spread of this virus and support workers who are on the front line, fighting this
battle.
There will be better days ahead and we believe the Comic-Con Museum will play an important role in San Diego’s recovery after COVID-19. We are a
destination city and tourism is vital to our economy. The development and opening of the Comic-Con Museum will act as a catalyst to reopen one of the
world’s best urban park’s and a destination city known world-wide.
Some of the proposed Phase I renovations will shift, but this will not scale back the visitor experience. Our 2021 grand opening is still on track and
you will soon see building plans that illustrate this transformation. To ensure we stay connected in this new reality, the Museum will introduce new
and creative digital ways to bring the magic of Comic-Con to you all year-round.
We will redouble our efforts to regain momentum on opening this museum by 2021. And we can’t wait to work with you to realize this vision. Better
days are ahead.

So, you wear flip flops, cargo shorts, stained shirt and have gray hair and untidy beard stubble?
