Hi all,
For those wondering, and our apologies for not mentioning anything sooner on here, but we are not having Anime Apocalypse this year.
We felt with the attendance (that while grew) was not something we would be able to continue on. We as senior management recognized that there was 1) no good financial option in Rockford and 2) there is already a bunch of other Chicago area cons that we felt it was best to step back and hold of a year, if not more.
Should there be a huge desire for Anime Apocalypse in the future, we'd love to hear it! We run these cons for you the fans and if it is something you would like to see return, we are all open ears. (It would return to Schaumburg, if it did return given the price of the other venue, the Cliffbreakers that we priced out in Rockford before our initial move to Schaumburg)
We truly appreciate everyone's dedication and enthusiasm to Anime Apocalypse, and we hope to see you at future events we run.
Thanks all,
Corey Wood
Owner/Convention Chair
