As Comic-Con 2025 Returning Registration nears, the question on everyone\u2019s mind is: Can I buy badges for my crew? Can I buy badges for my family? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, but only if they\u2019re eligible too. Each person must have bought attendee badges for Comic-Con 2024 and didn\u2019t request a refund to qualify for Returning Registration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eligible participants are able to purchase for up to three (3) eligible people. Whether you\u2019re included in that allotment of three, or you purchase solely for three other people (not including yourself), you will be able to purchase badges for friends. But<\/strong>, keep in mind that everyone you are purchasing for MUST also be eligible to participate in Returning Registration<\/span>.<\/strong> You will need their valid and confirmed Comic-Con Member ID, their last name exactly*<\/strong><\/mark> as it appears on their Member ID accounts (special characters and accents included), and the days they would like to attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*PRO TIP:<\/mark><\/strong> If you are purchasing badges for others, have them log in to their Member ID account<\/strong><\/a> ahead of the sale and send you a screenshot of their Member ID and last name so you don\u2019t run into any issues.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
