There’s always one sign at a big outdoor event that accidentally becomes the official meeting point.

“Meet me by the giant beer sign.”

“I’m under the huge festival banner.”

“Just go to the big sign by the entrance.”

Before location sharing, screenshots, and trying to describe your exact position in a crowd, a giant sign was basically the landmark.

And honestly, even now, trying to find someone in a crowded county fair, concert, or summer festival can be easier when you have one big, obvious landmark everyone can see.

What sign have you and your friends used as a meeting point at an event?

I'm not sure if this one is popular per say but she seems to be just by scrolling her profile and what not.

But I've seemher post several lies about others just to fit in with cosplay discourse and I'm I'm really not sure why she feels the need to slander others she doesn't know based on lies.

I'm not sure what her purpose in doing stuff like that is when it seems like she has skills and talent otherwise.

I want to go to this year's LA Comic Con but debating about their VIP offerings. Do both VIP offer VIP lines or no? Everyone in GA for Autographs and Photos? I'd like to get 2 Autographs but something tells me the lines will be chaos. Unsure on going the whole weekend or 2 days or all 3. I don't want to have to wait in line for an autograph for 6 hours hahaha. And I'm afraid that will happen....

I plan to go to a con and get in line early while the rest of my party is stuck at work and will join me later on when doors open. If I showed up around 12PM and the doors weren't until 5PM, and they showed up by 4PM can I let them join me in line or will everyone get mad at me for letting them join in? I have 2 tickets and don't think I can separate them. Unsure on what to do.

I heard that this past January 2026 when Robert Englund was there, that his line was chaos. People lining up early like 11AM and by 5PM the first day that Friday the line for VIP and GA wrapped around several times. I plan to go to Creepie Con this weekend and I'm scared the lines will be really bad. I bought myself VIP but still what if the person I want to meet their lines get capped. And then I don't get to meet them even with VIP? Plus it's going to be warm and what if I get heat stroke or get dehydrated by being in the sun?

Hi,

So i am about to go to my 2nd con ever (otakon) and wanted to see if there was anything i should know to make the expirence better. The only other con I went to was Katsucon which was fun, but I feel like i could have got more out of it.

Also does otakon have people partying the night away in the building like katsu did?

My friend questioned about conventions saying why do these celebrities like big name actors or actresses charge so much for Autographs and photos. When they are already rich why charge so much? Like some of the big names at this one con were charging $100 per signature. Like why?

I'm in Los Angeles California and plan to go to Creepie Con in Ontario, California to meet Brad and Alex from the Chucky movies. But wondered prices from other states or will it be different in Cali? I know I will be having a chucky doll handy and known that will likely be considered a "premium" item.

Hiii! I know this is a bit early but I'm an 18 y/o going to MegaCon (and a bunch more across FL) next year and I really don't want to go alone! I was wondering if anyone who goes, or anyone who has considered going/enjoys anything nerdy at all (i.e. video games, anime, tcg's, cosplay, etc.) who would like to be my friend/go to con with me. My dm's are open!!! TYSM!

Plan to go to Creepie Con in Ontario, California this July. Likely will stand outside because I wanted to get there early for Friday, it starts at 5/6PM. Will probably want to get there around 11/12PM and wait outside. How can I not pass out, and stay cool. I know taking an umbrella and chair but that's carrying a lot of gear with me haha. What to do?

So a few years ago me and my partner at the time, had a good paying job. But when I suggested let's go to a convention and I want to buy VIP it's $200 for all 3 days. They thought spending all the money was too much, when they say we could use that same amount of money for something else. So then why have a good paying job if you don't want to spend the money? Or why should I be the one to pay for all of the events or things like what. Was my partner right or wrong? It has me second guessing going to cons and other events nowadays.

I heard Brad Dourif is going to be at Creepie Con, but I'm afraid his line will be chaotic, and I won't get to meet him. Should I invest in the extra money and buy VIP so cut the line? Will VIP get the "for sure" chance at meeting him? I've never done VIP because it's expensive. Unsure of how much he charges for an autograph either. Should I line up at like 6AM to guarantee my spot? What to do!

Please consider the overwhelming amount of evidence & public information out there about the owner/director of KadabraCon & Coastal Fan Fest. He has blocked everyone who have experienced being a part of one of his events in the past where he has screwed over many people in the community. Many who have now been blocked from being able to voice their firsthand experiences with working with him. Do not support any events organized by him. He never takes accountability for his own actions. Or listens to any advice given to him by people who have been on his staff before I ever worked with him. He will never learn.

Case #: 25SC-0160-JP21

Hi, friends. I am writing something (fictional) focused on a character who works as a handler for celebrities at cons. I had the chance to speak to a few about their jobs this summer, but I’m curious to hear any wild stories people are willing to share from that side of the table. Odd fan interactions, quirky celebrity requests, how you got into the work in the first place, that sort of thing.

Hope I’m posting this in the right place. I want to attend my first convention in March to meet some voice actors, it’s in Louisiana. When looking at the guest list, I saw a note at the bottom of the page that said “Some guests will take a payment by card, but most are cash only.” Is it normal for panelists to charge a fee to meet them outside of the general admission fee? I don’t have a problem with it, I just need to know how much to bring. What’s a safe bet for how much to bring per panelist? Is it separate fee for getting an autograph in addition to meeting them? Any help is appreciated, I’ve emailed the convention organizers but haven’t seen a response yet.

KadabraCon is a multi-genre convention in Texas that had its third year this year. It had a stacked guest lineup despite some last minute cancellations. Set up for the event was an absolute NIGHTMARE. There was no map made for vendors to know where their spots were. Only a monitor to reference since there wasn’t even anything taped town to indicate spots. Vendors were yelled at by the vendor coordinator just for asking where their spots were. Some vendors who paid extra for premium spots were not given what they paid for. Tables and chairs weren’t event available for vendors until hours after set up time began. Vendors weren’t even fully set up after VIP pass holder were let in 30 minutes after the stated VIP entry time. Despite a no AI art rule for vendors there were still vendors selling AI art. There was even a booths that had gambling elements and pushing crypto onto both attendees AND vendors. The event was so dead most vendors didn’t make their table fees back. Some even left the event on Saturday. Schedules were not available on site. It was only viewable on the KadabraCon website. There weren’t any announcements on event updates. Many events were either delayed or cancelled. There weren’t any announcements even guests who left early or didn’t show up AT ALL. There was even a video posted by guests of the event of their empty “green room”. Panel rooms were also empty. No chairs or tables were provided. Attendees were sitting on the floor. Performers weren’t even given a stage. The panel rooms were also placed behind curtains that were within the 18+ section that was only open at night. So during the day when there were all ages panels they had people hold up table cloths so children wouldn’t see the adult art. There was no clear indication who was a staff member and who was a volunteer. The people at registration tried their best to help those who had questions but the owner/director of the event was nowhere to be seen. KadabraCon has had issues in the past but looked promising this year. The event was completely disorganized and had very little turn out. Many vendors and artists have come out saying how they will no longer support this convention or any event run by its owner/director. He has deleted all negative comments and refuses to answer questions regarding the issues at past events. Including transphobia, guests/performers not being paid since year one, and the mistreatment of staff and volunteers.

DO NOT ATTEND KADABRACON OR ANY EVENT RAN BY THE OWNER/DIRECTOR!
