WELCOME TO EVERYONE!
Thanks for being with us! We really appreciate your visit and we want to make sure you have the absolute best time! With that in mind a few rules to keep everyone safe:
1) Photo taking from your seats only, do not rush the stage when guests appear. Flashes while the stage lighting is on and theatre is dark will cause your photos not to come out well, full lights are turned on towards the end of the sessions.
2) No need to run to photo ops, we’ll get them all done. PHOTO OPS are done on a first come/first taken basis but line moves VERY FAST once it gets going.
3) Please have your items for signature out and ready during autograph sessions. Personalizations are at the discretion of the celebrities signing.
4) Our volunteers are here to help you and we thank them for doing so. However if you have an issue with ANYONE or ANYTHING please let us know during the convention so we can solve the problem. We can’t help out if you don’t tell us!
5) Please sit ONLY in the seat you paid for.
6) At the request of our guests, ABSOLUTELY no video or audiotaping PLEASE!
7) Please turn cell phones and kindly refrain from talking when a speaker or event is on stage.
OKAY, THAT’S IT: HAVE FUN! And, we LOVE to hear
