Summer of Sonic returns, but needs your Crowdfunding support!

The biggest Sonic fan convention returns for 2016, organized by the Sonic Stadium in the UK, they are aiming the event to take place at the ILEC Conference Centre in Earls Court, London, on the 6th of August, 2016. However, organizing an event is no easy task, that’s why they have just released a crowdfunding campaign. Pledging funds range go from £70 to £120.
Here’s more info on it on their press release:

The Biggest Sonic Convention is Back… For One More Run!

It’s been a while, but we’re back! To celebrate Sonic the Hedgehog’s 25th Anniversary, the Summer of Sonic is returning to host the biggest fan convention ever!

Since 2008 we have been entertaining fans with a day-long party that allows the young (and young-at-heart) to come together and meet up – against an electric backdrop full of live music, art contests, official Sonic game demos and meet and greets with the celebrities behind your favourite franchise!

After a two-year hiatus, we want to do it all again! But this time we need your help to make the show as fantastic as we can possibly make it. So we are introducing a Kickstarter project to Summer of Sonic 2016 in order to raise the funds we need to host an epic Sonic party right in the middle of London!

We understand that in previous years, we have given away tickets for Summer of Sonic for free on our website; for 2016, we are selling entrance to the convention via our Kickstarter page. So if you’d like to help us host a great show, and get an exclusive invitation to a fully SEGA-supported event to celebrate Sonic’s 25th, we’d really appreciate it if you considered pledging to our project.

We have set a goal that we feel is realistic for us to put on a show that matches the fun and excitement that we have hosted in the past, and we hope you’ll help us get there – together! We will of course look to updating the Kickstarter project over the course of its 30-day life too, so do keep an eye on the page for the latest updates.

The full Summer of Sonic 2016 Official Website will be coming soon. Until then, you can find our Kickstarter page right here, where we answer all your questions about the show, including date and venue details: http://tiny.cc/sos16/. Thank you so much in advance for your support – from 2008 right through to 2016!
