 +**AmatoCon** was a convention and executive development program hosted by [[amatogroup]] that took place in [[wp>Rialto, California]], from March 8--10, 2024. It was announced January 23, 2024.[(cite:announcingamatocon>[[announcingamatocon]])] It intended to cover topics such as business, entertainment, and education.

 +Event organizer [[tim|T. Amato]] had high hopes for the event, with The Amato Group leader [[gamato]] promising T. a 2018 Dodge Charger if the convention was a success. However, following various issues, celebrity cancellations, and the inclusion of [[toni]], G. Amato referred to the event, and T.'s effort, as a failure. With T. swiftly cutting ties with The Amato Group (following a violent altercation with [[joey]] and accusations of murder), it is unlikely that another AmatoCon will occur in 2025.
