The result was keep. Sources confirm it's happening and I can't see this AFD going any other way so like the rest I'm wrapping this up (non-admin closure) – Davey 2010 Talk 03:08, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

 * I agree with the nominator in principle — articles like this should not exist until the event in question is no more than a matter of months away, so that there's a lot more that can be said and sourced about the topic than just "this is a thing that will happen, the end". But already contains 35 other articles besides this one, and they're all subject to the same problem that applies here — so there's no valid reason to single this one out as uniquely inappropriate, as long as the others still exist. This should be discussed as a batch nomination on all of the related articles, not in isolation. Procedural temporary keep because this isn't a unique situation, but should be resubmitted as part of a batch — though I will support deletion as long as they all go.
