If you were one of those saving to go to ClashCon this year, you are unfortunately out of luck. Supercell announced today that it won't organize a ClashCon like it did last year; instead, the team wants to put all its attention to benefiting the entire community of Clash of Clans [Free] rather than the few lucky souls that can attend ClashCon. And the best way to benefit the community is by working hard to improve the game and add more features to it. Having a small team, the announcement points out, means having to say no to things you actually want to do. So, sorry guys, no ClashCon for 2016.
Part of working in small teams means sometimes saying "no" to things we badly want to do? https://t.co/fKBUPcTzoF — Clash of Clans (@ClashofClans) September 2, 2016

I can't say I'm that surprised to be honest because the Clash of Clans community (or at least the most vocal players) has definitely been demanding changes to the game, and although we haven't heard anything official about the upcoming update yet - other than some balance changes - there are rumors of big changes coming soon. So, I don't think anyone will complain if instead of getting a ClashCon, we get a better Clash of Clans.
