Yeah! The fifth, annual Commodore Los Angeles Super Show is set for April 13-14 at the Burbank VFW hall. Time to start preparing! ;)

Hurrah! The show was a big success! Thank you to all those who came from around California and from Nevada and Arizona! Tentatively, the CLASS of 2024 is set for April 13-14! And with more hours in the show for more Commodore and Amiga goodness! Photos and videos to come soon.

Big change in time! Saturday is still 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., but Sunday is now 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.!

Our location will be the same – the Burbank VFW hall.

Citing the evolution of the pandemic and the expiration of the state's emergency health order, the L.A. County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday to end the county’s COVID-19 emergency health order on March 31, 2023, just over three years after it went into effect.

You are strongly recommended to be fully vaccinated/up-to-date when coming to CLASS.

Due to financial and serious health concerns, CLASS veteran and Fresno Commodore User Group newsletter editor Lenard Roach has decided not to come to CLASS 2023. His presentation on More Bible Games for the C64 will be taken up by Robert Bernardo.

Confirmed – we start moving computer equipment into the hall on Friday, April 14, at 1 p.m.! For those who can't make it on Friday, we will have extra set-up time on Saturday, April 15, starting at 9 a.m., before the show.

The Commodore Los Angeles Super Show is held at Burbank Veterans of Foreign Wars hall, VFW USS Gudgeon Ship 8310, at 1006 W. Magnolia Blvd., in Burbank, California 91506, USA.

Admission is $25, whether you come for one day or both days. Under 16 years of age – admission is free!
