NEW YORK CITY DISers?

I just heard that the huge Italian festival (can't remember the name) got cancelled for 2020. Lots of entertainers (including DS) are really losing money from all the closings-Broadway for example. Wish things moved faster.

Not sure if it's the San Genaro Feast - it was announced about a week or two ago.
 

Found this from an old Dis meet from 2001. We live in South Amboy NJ and we just came back from the 5 night Marvel Day at Sea Cruise with WDWRADIO Been a disboards member since 20001B85FCA3-A7FE-4A55-92B0-D558B8DC1BF1.jpeg
 
How come we don’t do those local meets anymore?
Speaking from a New England perspective, it is a LOT of work to organize the meet ups. How come these aren't happening as much? Aside from having volunteers to put up the capital and person hours to rent/reserve and organize the weekend, the podcast team started to curtail their travels, because they were traveling A LOT for these meets. AND there were the large party events put on by the DIS and DREAMS. There was more scale-up fundraising with large-group gatherings, and it relieved the pressure on the regional meet volunteer crews. So it seemed like an evolution from the local meets to large-group gathering in Orlando, London, etc.
I imagine if there are folx willing to put in the extreme amount of effort and capital to put on a regional DIS meet, there is likely a demographic for it. However, I surmise there might be a smaller turnout if it's only DISers, and no podcast guests, etc.
 
My wife and I are DVC members and just moved to NYC if anyone wanted to meet up ever and talk disney! :)
 
Hour north (in Dutchess county) over here.
