Q: Can I bring my pet?
A: Sorry, no pets allowed (service animals excluded).

Q: Will there be water available?
A: Yes, to purchase from vendors, but it's best to bring your own refillable bottle to stay hydrated.

Q: What should I wear?
A: Comfy shoes are a must. Cosplay is encouraged but comfort is key!

Q: Is there ATMS?
A: Unfortunately there is NO ATMS

Q: Can i register for the cosplay comp on the day?
A: NO, we have a strict schedule and you would needed to pre register before the cut off.
