Google Cancels I/O 2020 Developer Conference Due to Coronavirus

Google has cancelled the physical portion of its I/O 2020 developer conference due to coronavirus. The company made the announcement today.

-----
Due to concerns around the coronavirus (COVID-19), and in accordance with health guidance from the CDC, WHO, and other health authorities, we have decided to cancel the physical Google I/O event at Shoreline Amphitheatre.

All guests who have purchased tickets to I/O 2020 will receive a full refund by March 13, 2020. If you don’t see the credit on your statement by then, please reach out to io@google.com. Guests who have registered for I/O 2020 will not need to enter next year’s drawing and will be automatically granted the option of purchasing an I/O 2021 ticket.


Over the coming weeks, we will explore other ways to evolve Google I/O to best connect with our developer community.

Google's announcement comes after slew of other event and appearance cancellations from Facebook, Microsoft, Adobe, Twitter, and others. Apple has yet to announce its plan for WWDC which is typically held in June.
