COVID-19 Policy

At the time of writing we do not know what, if any, precautions we will need to take in 2023 with regards to COVID19. However, the safety of our attendees is our number one priority. Many of our attendees will be older, and may have pre-existing health conditions. Subsequently, all attendees are encouraged to wear face coverings or masks if they feel able to, but this is not a requirement for entry.

We strongly encourage attendees to continue wearing masks anyway to further reduce the risk of infection and ensure a safe convention for everybody. However, we acknowledge that wearing a mask is down to personal choice and what you feel most comfortable with.
​
Please remember that, if you travel to the venue using public transport, they may require you to wear a face covering. 
We also reserve the right to require masks in certain areas of the event if needed or required by guests, such as any autographing area or other event spaces (unless attendees can show they are medically exempt). Any such requirements may be subject to change closer to the event, in line with current government guidance. 

Ventilation will be increased, improving fresh air circulation, in line with the latest guidance wherever possible.

In the event of a resurgence of the virus, and the government restricting gatherings, memberships will automatically transfer to a date when it is safe for the convention to occur/be completed. By purchasing your membership, you are agreeing to adhere to any COVID19 policies that we may need to introduce. This will likely involve a number of precautions that may include, but are not limited to:
  • Testing
  • Masks
  • Hand Sanitising
  • Social Distancing
  • Proof of Vaccination

Please note that memberships are non-refundable, and refusing to adhere to the COVID19 policies will not entitle you to any refund. We thank you all for helping us keep Jodiworld 23 a safe event.  

Negative COVID Test

We endeavour to ensure that all attendees have a safe and pleasurable weekend. To this end, at the current time, we would request all attendees carry out a lateral flow covid test 24 hours prior to arrival at the event. This is in addition to the current U.K. Gov policy, and reflects the range and needs of the people we expect to attend. Dependent on the current COVID threat level at the time of the event, this requirement may be increased or reduced at any time.

All of the above conditions will be subject to the prevailing government guidance at the time of the convention.

How to contact the Jodiworld Convention Committee
