The City of Austin has cancelled SXSW 2020 due to take place this month amid fears of Coronavirus spreading. This is the first time in 34 years that SXSW won?t go ahead, and while Austin Public Health doesn?t think cancelling the event will make the environment safer, it noted that the situation has evolved rapidly since Coronavirus first came to light last December.
?We are exploring options to reschedule the event and are working to provide a virtual SXSW online experience as soon as possible for 2020 participants, starting with SXSW EDU,? wrote the organizer. ?We understand the gravity of the situation for all the creatives who utilize SXSW to accelerate their careers; for the global businesses; and for Austin and the hundreds of small businesses ? venues, theatres, vendors, production companies, service industry staff, and other partners that rely so heavily on the increased business that SXSW attracts.?
