The Cubs Convention is the latest event to be canceled because of the coronavirus.
The team has called off the 2021 convention over concerns about COVID-19. It was to be held Jan. 15-17 at the Sheraton Grand Chicago. The cancelation was first reported by the Chicago Tribune.
“When we thought about producing an event of this size and magnitude in a pandemic environment, it was just not practical given the constraints of unknown hotel constrictions,” Cubs spokesman Julian Green told the Tribune.
