Before You Go

Frequently Asked

Yes. Children 6 and under are free every day of the show. On the final day — Family Day — children 12 and under get in free. Kids still need to be accompanied by a ticketed adult.

Absolutely. Your badge is good for re-entry on any day it covers. Keep it visible and don't hand it to anyone else — badges are non-transferable.

Yes. Admission gets you onto the floor and into panels. Photo ops and autographs are priced individually per guest and can be bought in advance or at the show while supplies last.

Cosplay props are welcome but must be peace-bonded at the entrance. No functional firearms, no live steel, no projectiles. Anything over six feet needs to clear security first.

All sales are final. Guest appearances are subject to professional obligations and cancellations do not qualify for refunds — this is standard across the convention industry.

Yes. JSA (James Spence Authentication) is onsite all weekend. Items signed at the show are certified at an event-special rate, and they can also authenticate previously signed items. Head to the authentication booth right after you meet your guest.

Send-ins run through our trusted partner companies, who collect your item, get it signed at the show and ship it back. Each partner sets its own prices and deadlines. See the send-in partners.
