It was announced in January ICANN70 would be held as a Virtual Community Forum, another casualty of the COVID-19 pandemic, with the meeting initially planned to be held in Cancún, Mexico.

There will be ten sessions for Prep Week, being held from 8 to 11 March 2021. To attend any of the sessions, please register for ICANN70. After registering, you will receive two emails:
