WonderCon Anaheim Press Terms & Conditions
A WonderCon Anaheim press badge is good for entry to all of the events held at WonderCon Anaheim (space permitting). The WonderCon Anaheim press badge, however, does not allow for early entry into the Exhibit Hall, programming rooms, events, or guaranteed seating. Please keep in mind that press registration is a courtesy and your WonderCon Anaheim press badge is non-transferable. You may not transfer or sell your WonderCon Anaheim press badge. Unfortunately, a press badge does not allow for plus ones, guests, or child badges.
 
Press will not be allowed into the Exhibit Hall prior to 10:00 am on Friday, March 29 or during closed Exhibit Hall hours. There are no exceptions. Any pictures posted of, or within, the Exhibit Hall prior to 10:00 am on Friday, March 29, will result in the forfeiture of your press badge. 
 
Video taping/filming/recording of any panels for COMMERCIAL PURPOSES (not news) will require you to obtain permission from WonderCon Anaheim and also from the panel participants. Please email pr@comic-con.org to request approval.
 
Because of a variety of rules governing the Anaheim Convention Center and WonderCon Anaheim, wheeled carts or handcarts are not allowed in the convention center. Additionally, camera crews, while free to roam the center, cannot set up equipment in a fixed manner (i.e. lights, chairs, etc.).
 
PLEASE NOTE:  Names, outlets, and emails of registered press will once again be made available to exhibitors, program participants and others prior to the convention (WonderCon Anaheim 2013 Press List).
 
As always, the issuance of a press badge is at the sole discretion of Comic-Con International/ WonderCon Anaheim.
