AmberCon UK 2020 is cancelled

We’re afraid it’s the news you’ve all been expecting.

Due to the pandemic of Covid 19, we have had to cancel this year’s AmberCon UK. We hope that the situation will have resolved in time for us to come back for AmberCon UK 2021 – and we’ll keep you informed about this.

In the mean-time, if you are craving an Amber fix …

A lot of you will have already heard about this but just in case word hasn’t reached you, Kevin (who also runs AmberCon Northern Ireland) is organising a free virtual (i.e. online only) AmberCon at the end of July.

Tir Na Nog’th Con will be on the weekend of the 31st July-2nd August 2020.

You can register for the Con using this form:

However please note that he’s been working on this for a while and the registration deadline for the Con is Sunday the 5th of July, only a few days away!

The Con is mostly being organised via the ACNI discord server, which you can join following this link: https://discord.gg/DV5Vfgv

If you are not familiar with Discord it is a chat platform similar to things like Slack and Teams but used mostly by gamers and it is easy (and free) to create an account.

You can also contact Kevin via the ACNI website: http://amberconni.org.uk/welcome/register/contact-us/

And we’re sure he’d be especially happy to hear from GMs wanting to run games they had planned to run at ACUK

Remember though the deadline is the 5th of July, so if you want to attend, don’t delay – click the link today!
