Christchurch Armageddon Expo Postponed
Feb 28th
The Armageddon Expo planned for Christchurch April 2nd and 3rd 2011, has been postponed due to the recent earthquake and damage to the city.
Founder and organiser Bill Geradts cannot say at this time when the event will run.
“Obviously it is too early to make a decision on when and where we’ll be able to hold the Christchurch event – but we’ll be making that assessment when the time comes. We are keen to be in our new home town again as soon as possible. Meanwhile, we’ll be doing everything we can to help get the city back on its feet,” he said.
The Wellington edition of the festival will continue as planned on April 9th and10th.
Armageddon is a popular expo catering to science-fiction, fantasy and anime fans. The company runs seven shows throughout Australasia but has its head office in Christchurch.
Bill Geradts and family were in Christchurch when the earthquake hit and says that both the Armageddon office and his home suffered extensive damage.
“We’re very keen to get stuck into the cleanup and to continue our plans for the future,” he said.
Armageddon fans and ticket holders are advised to watch the Armageddon website for updates.
“We are already proceeding with the Wellington event as a priority now and will have the event magazine and posters out shortly and the TV advert out soon as well,” said Geradts.
“Armageddon is fully committed to future events throughout NZ with confirmed plans for Christchurch, Wellington, Hamilton, Dunedin and Auckland in 2011/2012,” he said.
