Tips & Advice
- Arrive early and have your printed or digital ticket code ready to expedite entry, especially if purchasing tickets at the door.
- Check the Guests page for specific day appearances and autograph/photo op pricing, as these vary by guest.
- Consider purchasing a weekend pass for full access to all activities and to avoid missing out on specific guest appearances or panels.
- Be prepared for bag checks upon entry; having bags unzipped can speed up the security process.
- While many vendors and the official merchandise booth accept cards, bring cash as most celebrity guests primarily accept cash for autographs.
