Annual Superman Celebration Returning for 2021 with New Dates
Superman fans can look forward to the return of the Metropolis Superman Celebration held in Metropolis, IL. The annual Superman Celebration will take place this year, but will be not be held on the second weekend of June as usual, instead, it has been rescheduled for July 30th, 31st, and August 1st.
Last year's Superman Celebration was canceled after the Covid-19 pandemic caused restrictions of events and gatherings. Organizers made the tough decision after considering the health & safety of the guests and attendees as well as the financial aspect of putting on a large multi-day event during uncertain times. The announcement was made in March of 2020.
Fans who have been eagerly awaiting news of MSC 2021, can finally make plans to attend this year's event, but at a later date. The organizers feel by delaying the event by 7 weeks, more attendees will have received their vaccinations, and covid cases should be down considerably. With many conventions, festivals & events across the United States being canceled or rescheduled, the Metropolis Chamber of Commerce felt the best decision was to delay MSC to insure a safer gathering for fans. MSC 2021 will also be switched to a 3-day event instead of the 4 days as in past years. Organizers are finishing details on the schedule which will be full of the Super guests, events, entertainment & contests that MSC is known for.
Announcements will soon be posted on the Metropolis Superman Celebration Facebook page as well as SupermanCelebration.net.
The Metropolis Superman Celebration is hosted by the Metropolis Chamber of Commerce along with the City of Metropolis and The Greater Metropolis CVB.
