Matsuricon 2021 Update

We had high hopes of being able to return to Matsuricon this year with even more content for many of AGSP’s biggest fans. While things are beginning to open up as more people are vaccinated against COVID-19, it’s not quite completely safe to hold massively large indoor events.

Matsuricon had to make the gut-wrenching call to cancel their 2021 convention. While heartbreaking to see, we’re very glad that Matsuricon is acting with their attendees’ best interest at the front of their mind. As registrations and event submissions are being rolled forward, we look forward to working with the con to make a triumphant return in 2022.

WE do have some other events planned in the remainder of 2021. Check the Appearances for full details.

2020 Update

I hope everyone is doing as well as can be expected. This year has obviously not been the greatest, and many people have been affected by so many different crises that it can be hard to keep up with them all.

Due primarily to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, many fan conventions have been postponsed or cancelled. At this point, Anime Game Show Party is scheduled for Animatic Con in Cincinnati, OH in October, though my perspective is that the show will have to cancel if a significant turnaround in the spread of the virus in Ohio isn’t achieved soon.

Either way, AGSP will be taking a hiatus until at least January 1, 2021. I’ll be working on material in the meantime, and I am still accepting requests for shows for virtual conventions. I’ve successfully adapted Family Feud and the Yuri on ICe and Gundam Wing panels for presentation through Twitch, Zoom, or Discord. Use the contact form if you’re interested.

COVID-19 update

Like almost every part of life, the convention world has been rocked by the COVID-19 pandemic. Countless conventions have been postponed or cancelled to make sure that the most important part of the convention — the people — are safe.
 
Anime Game Show Party and my other panels were submitted to several of these conventions. We are closely monitoring the status of those conventions and this post will be updated as they announce any potential schedule changes.
 
Animatic Con: Rescheduled to October 16-18, 2020
Tekko: Cancelled for 2020.
Anime Central: Cancelled for 2020.
 
Each convention has a slightly different procedure regarding panelist status, and we are working with each convention to prepare for their next show.
 
As the pandemic evolves and changes how conventions are presented to the fans, Anime Game Show Party will evolve along with our convention partners and will keep providing quality content while making sure that everyone is safe.
