Wizard World has acquired two conventions, in Winnipeg and the New Orleans area, which it will incorporate into its annual circuit.  The Winnipeg show, Central Canada Comic Con, has been held annually in Winnipeg, Manitoba at the Winnipeg Convention Centre, and was run by Cencon Inc.  The show was held most recently this past weekend; the 2011 dates for Wizard World Central Canada Comic Con will be October 28-30.     

Wizard also acquired NOLA Comic Con, which was held the last two years in suburban New Orleans.  The show will be consolidated with Wizard’s New Orleans show (see “Wizard Adds New Orleans”).
