Last month, Wizard World acquired Albuquerque Comic Expo and announced that the redubbed Wizard World Comic Con Albuquerque would be added to its 2015 convention schedule, but Wizard World has now postponed the new con to 2016, citing late introduction and a conflict with Wizard World Comic Con Sacramento as the primary reasons for this move.
Official press release:
Wizard World Comic Con Albuquerque To Be Rescheduled To June 24-26, 2016
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., May 22, 2015 – Wizard World, Inc. (OTCBB: WIZD) today announced that Wizard World Comic Con Albuquerque will be postponed until June 24-26, 2016. A timing conflict with the concurrent Wizard World Comic Con Sacramento, June 19-21, 2015, and late introduction of the show just last month are the primary reasons cited for the rescheduling of the 2015 event.
Refunds will be automatically issued to those who had already purchased admissions, photo ops and autographs. In addition, those individuals will receive free admission to the 2016 event.
Wizard World regrets the inconvenience and looks forward to providing the full Wizard World experience for its Albuquerque show next year. The company is appreciative of the cooperation of the Albuquerque Convention Center, area hotels and other partners in accommodating the new schedule.
