Arizona Game Fair’s 2023 event is canceled, and the annual convention has shut down “indefinitely,” according to an email to followers and notice on its website on Wednesday.
“With rising facility costs and our inability to build the various communities necessary to support the show, we don’t see a sustainable future for the Fair,” reads the announcement, which notes the Fair is looking for ways to make its game library and online presence “a sustainable resource for the community.”
Founded in 2017 and directed by Andrew Long, Arizona Game Fair took place at the Mesa Convention Center. The 2020 and 2021 Arizona Game Fairs were canceled amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and the event returned in March 2022.
