All the International convention Dates

[Brandon]

I thought it would be fun to try and crowdsource the exact dates for the conventions. Our official site, jwevent.org, only lists the month.

 

This way, we can better search for online news (or social media) about specific convention cities, so long as we gather the dates.

 

edit: apparently you can just ask ChatGPT for the exact dates and it’s able to fetch them (except for the months in the past). I’d still appreciate anyone willing to help fact check the precise weekend dates.

• Douala, Cameroon — date?
• Bucharest, Romania — date?
