Wizard World Atlanta pushed to 2007
Date: 8/3/2005
Wizard World Atlanta will begin in 2007, Wizard CEO Gareb Shamus said Monday on the Comic Geek Speak podcast. Shamus said Wizard "is working towards an event in Atlanta in '07," but did not give a reason for canceling the 2006 convention. Wizard originally announced that the Atlanta convention would take place June 30-July 2nd, 2006. This would have conflicted with the long running Heroes Convention in North Carolina, as well as Anime Expo in California and Origins in Ohio.
