Oct 27

It probably doesn’t come as a surprise to anyone after all the other shows have been cancelled (or gone virtual) this year, but Creation Entertainment has officially announced the cancellation of his year’s Star Trek Las Vegas convention. The convention was scheduled to take place in December after being rescheduled back in June, but event organizers announced they are pushing back the annual show to August 11-15 of 2021, along with giving it a new name — “The 55-Year Mission Tour.”

From the Creation Entertainment press release:

During this pandemic crisis, Creation Entertainment remains steadfast in keeping the health and safety of our attendees, celebrities and staff as our top priority. While we had hoped to present our Official Star Trek Convention on December 9-13, 2020, due to ongoing local, federal and international protocols, we are unable to do so.

We will be next returning again to our traditional time of year and will be back in Vegas on a new date: August 11-15, 2021 at the Rio All-Suites Resort Hotel and Casino, and its beautiful state-of-the-art convention center!
The year 2021 marks the 50th Anniversary of Creation Entertainment, the 55th Anniversary of Star Trek, the 20thAnniversary of our convention in Las Vegas and Gene Roddenberry’s 100th birthday year. It’s the perfect time to celebrate and no city is better than Las Vegas to do just that!

2021 is going to be a big year for Star Trek fans. According to the press release, it marks the 50th anniversary of Creation Entertainment, the 55th anniversary of Star Trek, the 20th anniversary of the annual Star Trek fan convention in Las Vegas, as well as Gene Roddenberry’s 100th birthday year. To celebrate, the “55-Year Mission Tour” will include more than 100 celebrity guests, contests, music, and cosplay.

Existing ticket holders will have their tickets transferred to the new 2021 date and updated tickets will be sent via email. Head over to the Creation Entertainment website for more information. It’s always a great show, so fingers crossed the world is back to “normal” by summer of 2021 because there’s a lot of Trek to celebrate!
