Autographs

---

Autograph Area

Now located in Hall A, the Autograph Area is the perfect spot to collect special mementos from artists, authors, and actors across the popular arts. Some signings follow panels, so check the program grid daily. 

The Autograph Area is open Friday from 12:00 PM to 7:00 PM, Saturday from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM, and Sunday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. No autograph sessions will take place outside these hours.

Due to high demand and limited availability, some autograph signings require tickets, distributed through a line-drawing process outlined below. A designated area will be set up for attendees waiting for the drawings to begin. Each morning, you may line up for that day’s drawings upon entering the building in Hall D. Drawings begin sixty minutes before the Exhibit Hall opens, and only lines in the official designated area will be recognized. A winning line ticket or wristband, grants you the opportunity to stand in line for an autograph at the specified location and time. The number of winning tickets is based on the session’s duration. The Autograph Area Coordinator may close a line at any time, even if attendees are still waiting. We appreciate your understanding and apologize for any inconvenience.

WonderCon Autograph Guidelines

(Revised 2025)
WonderCon attendees often look forward to meeting the Guests and leaving with a memorable souvenir from the experience.

Autograph Area Guidelines

• Autograph Area participants are not expected to sign anything they deem offensive or that violates any contractual agreements they may have.  
• Autograph Area participants may not charge for autographs in the Autograph Area, and no one may conduct any sales at all, whether autographs or tangible property.

Limited Signings Ticket Drawing Procedure

(Revised 2025)
Due to the high demand for certain signings—which may be limited by time, the number of people the guest can accommodate, or the number of items they agree to sign—some signings will require tickets. Tickets for these limited signings are distributed through random drawings. To participate, please proceed to the designated line, where one of two distribution systems will be used.

• You will either press the button on the randomization device to be instantly told if you are a winner; or 
• You will pick a ticket out of a container (the winning tickets will have a distinct stamp on the back)

Wristbands will be placed on all winners’ wrists immediately. The wristband will admit the wearer into the designated autograph line at the specified location and time. If you do not win, you may return to the end of the line and try again until all wristbands have been distributed. Each person is allowed one wristband per signing.

Procedure for Attendees with Mobility Issues

This procedure may be used by any attendee with mobility issues who has registered at the Disabled Services Department and wishes to obtain autographs from talent appearing in the Autograph Area or participate in any ticket drawing in the Autograph Area.

• If there is a line to obtain an autograph or a line to pull a ticket to gain entrance into an autograph line, WonderCon will provide someone to stand in your place.
• You must arrive prior to the scheduled autograph time or drawing time and check with an Autograph Area Staff member wearing a green shirt. 
• You will be assigned a volunteer. You and your assigned volunteer will discuss the best course of action (for example, you will wait near the front of the line and when the volunteer has reached the front, you will trade places with the volunteer and obtain the autograph or pull the ticket, or you may choose to have the volunteer pull a ticket from the bag and meet you in a designated location).
• If there is more than one autograph or drawing you wish to participate in simultaneously, you may have the assigned volunteer do one after the other, but you may not have two volunteers assigned.

If you do not check in and request a volunteer to stand in your place, it is expected that you will wait in any Autograph Area line (including Limited Signing Ticket Drawings) with all other attendees. During Autograph Area sessions, attendees with credentials from the Disabled Services Department will not be ushered from the side of the Autograph Area table to the front of the line unless they have followed the above procedure and they are taking the place of their assigned volunteer in the line.
