The anti-immigrant Trumper event set for July 9 in DTSA has been cancelled

The ESports Arena has decided to cancel the “Summer of Conservatism” event planned for DTSA. Apparently the ESports Arena was not affiliated with the event, instead the event was booked using an online form and they were not aware that their venue was being used by anti-Latino Trumpers until we posted about it. Here is the full notice from the ESports Arena:

“The event “The Summer of Conservatism” scheduled for July 9 was booked using a third party event planning platform and has no affiliation with the owners, operators or staff of Esports Arena. We have reviewed the scope of the event and have concluded that it will not be held at Esports Arena for a variety of reasons, including concerns for safety, property damage and the well being of our neighbors.

Since opening our headquarters in Downtown Santa Ana, we have had nothing but positive interactions with the community. We are proud to have hosted many successful third party events at Esports Arena, including fundraisers for the Children’s Hospital, LGBT Center of Orange County and Make-A-Wish Foundation, and look forward to hosting many more in the future. At the same time, we want to highlight that we are primarily a video game event and broadcast venue, and our loyal fan base will continue to be our top priority.

On Sunday, July 9 we will host an event for community members who have not yet experienced Esports Arena to see the venue and play video games at no charge. Additional information about this event will be released in the near future.

Thank you,
Esports Arena Santa Ana”
