S. Eichholz (ANF) No Mekka symposium 2003 (Update II)
As announced today on the Mekka Symposium homepage the Mekka Symposium 2003 will not be held. Further details can be found in the following original message or at the title link.

Dear Fellow Sceners,

We will keep the upcoming information as short and painless as possible:

Due to irreconcilable personal differences within the main organizer team, the Mekka & Symposium 2003 WILL NOT TAKE PLACE. Yes, we're serious.

Some of you will shout "NO, you simply can't do that!". Believe us, it was a hard decision for us, too -- but in the end, we had to make it. If you are interested in some more explaining info, read the next few lines.

A demoparty should be fun for everybody, and this is also valid for the organizers that set the whole thing up; a good event can only be organized in a good mood, otherwise it will be a disaster. We don't want the next Mekka & Symposium to become a disaster, so we're going to stop right before this can happen.

The last few years and events were a huge success and we all had a lot of fun; this should never be forgotten by anyone, neither visitors, nor organizers! We stop right at this point to make sure that Mekka & Symposium will always be remembered as one of the best demo parties ever. All the past years it was your support and contribution, your presence and your personal efforts that made Mekka & Symposium such a great, respected and productive event and we deeply say "THANKS" for that, to each and every one of you, be it visitors or organizers.

Sincerely yours,
The Mekka & Symposium Main Organizer Team.

PS: We were told that an alternative party in Germany is being organized at Easter. Stay tuned for details.

Update:
Petition: "Bring back Mekka Symposium Petition".

Update 26.11.2002:
Under http://breakpoint.untergrund.net you will find information about an alternative event. (ps) (Translation: sk)
