SHOW TIMES
- The show schedule is posted the week of the convention to accommodate flight itineraries and filming schedules of our celebrities, but here are the tentative times for the show:
• The pre-registration night before the convention generally runs from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
• The convention programming usually starts around 9:00-10:00 AM and ends around 5:00-6:00 PM.
• Evening events will be scheduled after 6:00 PM.
NOTE: All guests and scheduling are tentative and subject to change. Our best advice is to plan for these time variabilities and check the schedule as soon as it is available.
