Be sure of which day a guest is doing photo ops/autographs before purchasing your admission tickets. You must have an admission ticket for the day of your photo op and/or autograph.
Having the chance to get in-person autographs from the stars is one of the real benefits in attending our convention. Click here for guest prices!
REMINDER: Most guest will sign almost any item you bring from home or you can buy an item at the convention, but you need to have an item for the guest to sign. One ticket equals one autograph.

Read more about the concert policies here!
Note: Convention admission passes are not required to purchase a concert ticket or attend the concert, but the concert is an evening event ONLY and the ticket does NOT include an admission pass for daytime programming. This event is complimentary for Gold, Silver and Copper Weekend Patrons but the first rows will be removed for standing so weekend pass holders do NOT keep their daytime reserved seats for this event. There will be room to sit in the back for those that prefer to, and the show is still quite visible and enjoyable.
On FRIDAY... It's time to sing! Get the chance to sing on-stage in a raucous evening of karaoke and dancing, with possible special guests. All guest participants are tentative until show time.
You DO NOT need a convention pass to attend. Read more about our KARAOKE EVENT!

Since this is a FREE EVENT, you do not keep your same seats. There will be seats in the back if you prefer to sit. If you have a VIP pass or special needs, please come to the front of the line. During programming on Friday, Karaoke Sign-Ups are ONLY IF YOU WANT TO SING A SONG (Check the schedule for the time). It is not necessary to sign up if you just want to attend.
NOTE: If you choose to stand in line early to be up front, you may only hold one additional place until the doors open. Once the doors open and if your companion is not there, there is no guarantee there will be room left in the front. Although these are FREE events and you do not need a convention pass to attend, please be aware that there is still a limited capacity at each venue. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis and space may be filled to capacity.

Giving Gifts to Celebrities
We know that many fans like to give gifts to our celebrity guests and we feel this is a lovely gesture. However, it's impossible to accommodate the large amounts of gifts and we do not have an adequate system to accept them at the many different venues. Please refrain from bringing gifts to the convention.
Instead, we are offering the following addresses for fans to send gifts to the celebrities:
Attn: Ian Somerhalder or Paul Wesley
c/o ICM Partners
