There are meets outside the US. The issue is organizing them - CanJam usually goes to a city that has a team of members who have consistently held large meets. There isn't a central planning committee that chooses a location each year and the same people do the planning. It gets handed off to separate teams each time. Given how large and important CanJam is becoming, it won't go to a city that hasn't proven itself.

Also, anyone can organize a meet anywhere they want. If you want to have one, check with places that offer meeting rooms and make arrangements. Start a thread in the Meet Forum, get a group of people together and contact local vendors. If you want a meet, go put one together. Meets are the best part of this hobby. I've been to two and it looks like I'll go to at least four more this year.
