child badge policy

WonderCon is proud to offer one of the most generous child badge policies in the industry

Children (age 12 and under) are free with a paying adult! You may register up to two (2) children per paid adult attendee on-site. Children do not need to (and should not) create a Comic-Con Member ID to receive a complimentary child badge. Children must be present to be registered for a badge, and adults will be required to provide emergency contact information for any child registrant.

Child badges are not registered in advance. Please visit the Registration area when you arrive on-site for more information.

Child-to-Junior Transition

To accommodate the transition from child (age 12 and under) to junior (age 13-17), we have set a static date to determine who is considered a child for WonderCon 2025.

If they were at least 13 years old on February 28, 2025, they must have their own Comic-Con Member ID created in order to purchase a badge to attend WonderCon 2025.

If your child was age 12 or under on February 28, 2025, they do not need a purchased badge for WonderCon 2025. They may attend as a child for free as long as they are accompanied by a paying adult.
