Next month's Anime Evolution 2008 has been postponed

According to information posted on the Anime Evolution forums yesterday, this year's Anime Evolution in Vancouver, British Columbia has been postponed. The convention had been scheduled for August 22-24, 2008.

Anime Evolution has been run at the Burnaby Campus of Simon Fraser University since 2003. Last year, the convention reported an estimated attendance of 4,200 people.

The decision to postpone the convention apparently came about as there was a conflict between the convention and an orientation scheduled on the university campus that same weekend. As of this posting, no new dates or location have been announced. There are also no details on refunds.

Thanks to forum user Bryguy for the tip.
