Tickets
-
Please check individual ticket descriptions for details and restrictions; classifications of Autograph Tickets vary based on the guest. Some guests have any item pricing while others are tiered into Autograph, Premium, etc.
-
Inscription Tickets must be accompanied by an Autograph Ticket; guests will not add an inscription to a previously signed item.
-
Guests are regularly scheduled for overlapping time slots; this will not cause problems when getting items signed by multiple guests. Tickets for each signing guest are called by number to minimize the time spent waiting in line and our staff is available to assist you if necessary.
Photo Ops
-
Photo Ops (unless they are noted as Digital Photo Ops) are taken by a professional photographer and take place 15-30 minutes prior to the posted appearance time in the Photo Op Booth, located in the Autograph Pavilion.

Photo Ops can be used individually or can include your group of up to 5 people in a single photo with the named guest(s).

Professional Photo Ops include one glossy 8×10 print of your photo (printed on site). Additional prints can be purchased from the photographer directly.

Digital Photo Ops are taken with your phone or camera at the signing table and do not include any hard copy print. They are only offered when noted.
