After running the 2020 event virtually, ReedPop is in the planning stages of holding the 2021 event in-person at Manhattan’s Javits Center between October 7th – 10th.
“Certain dealers and companies were asked in recent weeks by ReedPop, the organizer of NYCC, about their interest in doing an in-person event,” writes the trade outlet.
Specific details (i.e., panels, attendance capacity, etc.) are still hazy, but it seems like there will be a virtual component running in conjunction with the physical convention. The annual con went totally virtual last fall and SYFY WIRE’s coverage of that unprecedented transition is currently quoted on the Metaverse website.
We will have to see how this pans out over the next few months, and if anyone from outside the US is able to attend due to ongoing COVID restrictions.
