Re: Too many Shows at a time?
that is the thing how are the Organizers of the shows supposed to get a hold of each other.
To add to it why should one group not have their said event just because another had one or is having one as London Ontario Comic-Con was this weekend as well so that might have took a bunch of business.
One more thing is not everyone has access to transportation to get to events so to have multiple one at different locals kind of give more people the opportunity to get in on the action.
On-line shopping kind of killed a lot of attendees I would think.

2 of those events you listed are in Hamilton. I don't know about you, but I live no where near Hamilton and could hardly give 2 shits what they do there.

Re: Too many Shows at a time?
I wish some of the events can be in the east part of GTA. Most of it are in west part like Mississauga, or Hamilton.

Re: Too many Shows at a time?
Honestly the other big problem has become the lack of diversity among the dealers.
I would hazard only a guess, but over the last 4 months I would say that most shows have had 60%+ the same dealers, with the same product. Of course the big shows (Fan Expo, TFcon) get a much larger, and diverse, groups of dealers, but after that it seems more of the same.
Frankly there will be a tipping point sooner or later. All fandoms will eventually falter, and the shows will follow. I mean back in the late 90's, early 2000's there were big Star Trek and Star Wars conventions in the city, but they didn't last which is surprising for Star Wars.
