Important Registration and Check-In Tips

Posted September 1, 2010

With the convention just a couple of days away, we’d like to remind you of some important check-in information including what you need to bring, and provide some tips on when and where to line up to register or check in.

Check-In

All attendees, both those who have pre-registered and those registering at the door, need the following to check in:

  • Photo ID
  • Parental permission form if under age 18

If you are pre-registered, then you also need:

  • Your badge/membership card, if you opted to have it mailed

For those registering at the door, we will pass out registration forms in line. Please fill these out before reaching the front table to keep the line moving quickly.

Registration and Check-In Hours

Friday: 4:00pm-10:00pm
Saturday: 7:00am-7:00pm
Sunday: 7:00am-7:00pm
Monday: 8:00am-1:00pm

On Friday at 4:00pm, check-in begins for pre-registered attendees. On Friday at 6:00pm, we still start selling at-the-door full weekend badges. Due to space limitations, only a limited number will be sold, and they may sell out early on Saturday or even on Friday!

Update: The registration line for Friday night only will be located at the parking garage entrance on the corner of SW Taylor and SW Broadway (this is the NW corner of the hotel Main Tower block). This line starts at the door at the garage street level and eventually leads up to the registration desk on Level 2 (PL). This line starts at 4pm. Only pre-registered attendees may be in line from 4:00pm to 6:00pm. After 6:00pm, attendees who would like to register for the weekend at the door may also enter the line.

On Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, pre-registration check-in will be located at the SW entrance of the hotel Main Tower block, at the corner of SW Salmon and SW Broadway. This line starts at the entrance door, goes down a few steps and across the hallway, and up the short escalator. The check-in table is at the top of the escalator.

On Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, at-the-door registration (either single-day or weekend (if quantities still available)) will be located at the parking garage entrance on the corner of SW Taylor and SW Broadway (this is the NW corner of the hotel Main Tower block). This line starts at the door at the garage street level and eventually leads up to the registration desk on Level 2 (PL).

Check-in and registration for VIPs, industry, press, and those requesting disability assistance are available 24 hours. You may access Level 2 (PL) any way you wish, including the grand stairway or the elevators. Outside of normal registration hours, please see the Operations Office, located on Level 2 (PL) behind the elevators (opposite side as the escalators).

Pre-registration for Kumoricon 2011 begins on Monday at 11:00am. The line for this begins at the same place as same-day pre-registration check-in was (SW Broadway entrance).

Hours subject to change.
