Wizard World Comic Con Albuquerque To Be Rescheduled To June 24-26, 2016

wizard worldWizard World, Inc. announced that Wizard World Comic Con Albuquerque will be postponed until June 24-26, 2016.

Refunds will be automatically issued to those who had already purchased admissions, photo ops and autographs. In addition, those individuals will receive free admission to the 2016 event.

Wizard World has said they regret the inconvenience and look forward to providing the full Wizard World experience for its Albuquerque show next year.
