Hello, everyone!
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the cancellation of 𝑪𝒐𝒔𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒚 𝑩𝒂𝒍𝒍: 𝑻𝒂𝒍𝒆𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑹𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅 𝑻𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆, originally scheduled for December 21, 2024. After careful consideration and reviewing the current registration numbers, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the event due to insufficient registrants.
We will begin processing refunds for everyone who has made full or partial payments starting this week (November 17, 2024 and onwards). We will communicate with those who registered for their refund process which is already prepared.
We understand how much our community looks forward to these events, and we genuinely appreciate the enthusiasm and support you have shown. However, despite our efforts, it has become clear that the registration fee has been a barrier for many, and we do not want to proceed with an event that may not be accessible to the majority of our community. Instead, we believe it is more responsible to focus on creating an event that is 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘭𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘷𝘦, 𝘢𝘧𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺.
Looking ahead, we are excited to announce that the medieval-themed event you were hoping for will now be part of Tacloban Fan Festival - FanFest 2025.
