FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WonderCon Opens Registration Badge Pick-Up One Day Early

WonderCon, Northern California's largest comic book and pop culture convention announced today those who have pre-registered for the three-day event can pick up their badges on Thursday, February 21, one day before the event begins.

In an effort to decrease waiting in line when WonderCon opens on Friday, anyone who has pre-registered for a full 3-day WonderCon membership or a Friday-only membership—either online, by mail, or by purchasing a ticket at a Bay Area comics shop—can pick up their badge on Thursday, February 21, in the main lobby of Moscone Center South at 747 Howard St.

While the convention itself will not open until the following day (Friday, February 22, 2008), registration will be open on Thursday to allow for early badge pick-up. This includes those who have pre-registered for a Professional membership.

The registration area will be open from 12:00-7:00 PM only for pre-registered 3-day, Friday, and Professional members. Unfortunately, there will be no onsite membership sales on Thursday.
