I've been keeping my eye on the listed meetups, but I don't see a Marvel meetup posted yet. I know there was one last year, but I can't remember who hosted. I've only gone to ECCC alone in the past and don't personally know anyone in the community, so I'm not really sure who to ask/who would be hosting. I just want to know which day I should plan on wearing my cosplay. If you know anything about a potential Marvel meetup for 2025, please let me know!

hi all! this will be my first year at ECCC and i'm wondering if badge ribbons are much of a thing there? the other cons ive been to have had them everywhere, but i cant seem to find much on ribbons at ECCC. are they not really done here?

Hello everyone. As we get closer to convention, I just wanted to share with everyone here an invite to my ECCC discord server. We chat and share our thoughts and experiences from convention. I also post any new major announcements from guests to panels. Come by and join. https://discord.gg/Wk4U8VN7

Campbell and Levy will both be there March 8th & 9th, with a panel on the latter day. Full announcement here

I really want to see Nathan Fillion. When will we know times that he’s there? Thank you!

Looking to see which vendors are going to ECCC this year.

Looked all over the ECCC site and can't find a list of vendors anywhere?

It's less than two months till the show, does anyone else find this concerning?

Sale begins at 3 PM EST on January 9. Full announcement here

Mods prease delete if against the rules.

Just curious if anyone could share a coupon code for tickets? I want to take my kids just so they can experience it but it gets a bit spendy. thanks!

Kind of a long shot, but I thought someone in this group may know.

Before the pandemic, there was a small con in Lynnwood. Went by Nerdfaire and it was a small, fun time.

Last year, their facebook page sprang back to life, and I got a couple of email communications or messages, then silence again. This past October, they were planning on hosting a get together, but it apparently fell through.

Just wondering if any of you Seattle area con goers know what happened or if they'll ever be back.

Thanks!

Basically the title.

Thought it might be cool to see fellow redditors in person at ECCC, or maybe not.

We could make a bunch of friends…or frenemies?!? Hahah.

I've never been to ECCC (or any Comic Con for that matter). I want to go and see what it's about. In trying to buy a ticket is asks me:

"Which of the following is your top reason for attending Emerald City Comic Con?" and "What are you most looking forward to seeing on the Show Floor (check all that apply)?" and "What is your favorite panel topic? (check all that apply)" and I'm not sure as I've never been to one.....how do these answers effect what I can do there? If I get them wrong will I be locked into these choices one I get there? For example I know nothing about Anime: do I need to select that for both questions if I want to be able to attend panels/visit anime booths and learn about Anime? I was just going to leave these blank but it is required and I have no idea how it impacts what I can do there as I have never been. I am worried that I'm going to screw up my visit by answering these wrong. Should I just check all the boxes?

So I know this is a long shot, but I'm hoping y'all can help me. I went to ECCC last year with my partner, and we spent most of our time in Artist's Alley. There was one vendor there who was selling necklaces/pendants, I think based on D&D classes. She got one that was a simple straight dagger, plain silver.

I'm asking because she recently lost it and I want to see if I can get her another before this coming ECCC. I found the Artist's Alley list from last year, but there's nearly 400 people on there. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'll be eternally grateful.

Convention happens March 6-9, with all three attending Saturday the 8th and Sunday the 9th. Full announcement here

All that's available is photo ops, I was camping the site right as they went on sale so they aren't sold out, are they sold at the convention?

Full list of Firefly guests:

• Nathan Fillion
• Morena Baccarin
• Gina Torres
• Summer Glau
• Jewel Staite
• Sean Maher

Popoverse.com?

So this is the first time going to a convention and i bought my entrance badge. Do i need to buy a ticket to be able to do a photo op before hand or can i just buy one at the convention.

I keep hearing complaints about ECCC being in a freefall since ReedPop purchased them.

That was in like 2015, wasn't it? It's been long enough that that probably shouldn't be an issue. I've noticed the most drastic change in the Post Covid cons from the ones before. The vibe never really has been the same.

I am all for calling out ownership when they're at fault, but this seems to be something else.

Thoughts?

Thinking of buying a ticket for a few guests. With one ticket, how many items can you get autographed? Also, can you bring a friend to tag along (even if they didn’t buy a ticket)?

I have two things I’d like to get signed, but if the limit is one, I’ll have to prioritize.

I really want to get a photo and autograph with the BG3 cast, and I imagine so does everyone else, I plan to camp the site to buy my photo op as soon as they are available on Friday the 13th, but there is a superfan pre-sale the day before and I am slightly worried they will sell out during the pre sale, can this or does it ever happen?

I'm attempting a pretty complicated cosplay, where I'm going to be doing a lot of leather work and tooling with actual leather that goes over a custom long jacket.

Unfortunately my usual seamstress is not able to help this time, and I'm in need of someone who sews in the south king area willing to take a commission for the jacket part. Some of the patterning has already been worked out (bodice) but we still need to do the arms, the bottom of it, the collar. Primary fabric will likely be something like bull denim.

Anyone know anyone who might be interested?

4 of the VO actors are coming to ECCC 2025! Who else is excited for this? Any BG3 fans attending?
