By now, we are all sick of staying home. There were things we wanted to do, people we wanted to see. For some of us, we had things planned months in advance that have fallen down the drain.
Today, we are going to remind you of what you have missed this weekend in the convention world.
Ice & Fire Con
This Game of Thrones themed event held in Mt. Sterling, OH has been rescheduled to October 29 through November 1.
Calgary Expo
Just like the name says, this event is held annually in Calgary, Alberta. Originally scheduled to run April 23-26, it has been pushed off until the weekend of July 17.
Thanks to Ron Friedman, we had some fantastic cosplay photos from last year’s event. You can see more photos in the original article.
Chiller Theatre
Unfortunately, this horror film-themed event, located in Parsippany, N.J., had to move their 30th anniversary to Halloween weekend.
RavenCon
Based near Richmond, VA, this annual science fiction convention honors the styling of Edgar Allan Poe. They have cancelled this year’s event and plan to resume next year with guests Terry Brooks and Rhiannon’s Lark.
Medford Comic Con
Held by the Jackson County Library Services, it has been cancelled.
Penguicon
Penguicon is a three-day event about hacking, building sci-fi universes, soldering, painting miniatures, gaming, coding, music, incredible costumes, and more. It looks like they are holding a virtual con this year that you can find on their home page.
Hopefully they physically return next year.

A Starfury event for fans of “The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” that they have rescheduled for November 6th – 8th, 2020 in Heathrow.
