If you are talking about Warcon in march: I copied a post from their facebook: hey all,
after some internal discussion we have decided its best if we skip a year. so no warcon in 2017 but stay tuned for next year |

Great shame if this is indeed the case. This year's show was good in the new venue with more traders than on previous occasions. Miss a year and you risk losing all this as traders will fill their diaries with other events. |

Cazador, I agree with you. It would be a shame if the show wouldn't be continued in 2017. But of course the organising clubs will have their reasons. |

Last years location offered so much more possibilities. Would be a blow to the wargames world in the Dutch speaking regions and beyond if Warcon would be cancelled next year. |

Anybody know why it was decided to skip a year? It really would be such a shame if this great little show were allowed to die. Come on Warcon, enquiring minds need to know! |

Probably the same reason as in so many hobby (wargaming or not) clubs: the organisation of such events in practice depends on the efforts of one or two individuals. If these are no longer willing or able to take up the work, the whole thing collapses. |
