Hello,

I have not attended C2E2 before and had some questions about how autographs work. Due to a scheduling conflict we can only attend on Sunday. How do buying autographs work? Do they sell them online in advance? Do you have to buy them on like Friday at registration or are you just able to walk up to the table without an "appointment" and pay right at the table? We are specifically going for Jeffrey Dean Morgan and wondered how it worked if we only go Sunday. Thanks in advance for the help.

If I recall correctly, you can pay in advance for photo ops, but autographs are just people lining up in the morning and then paying at the table (bring cash).  They usually don't post the actual times the celeb will be signing until the con starts and even then it can get adjusted that day.  For most celebs at C2E2 the autograph lines are longer in the morning and shorter as the day progresses.  Lines on Sunday are shorter than Saturday.  Last year, you could walk right up to Melissa Benoist by late in the afternoon.  In the morning you might wait an hour or two.

Thank you, that is exactly what I need to know!! I don't mind lining up and waiting for the auto but if they sold tickets at registration then they would be sold out by Sunday of course! Just waiting in line works much better :)

Is it safe to assume if they are scheduled for both days of the con then they sign both days as well?

Yup! If they're listed for certain days, then they should be signing for those days.

Yeah, last year I was in line for Melissa Benoist's autograph and wanted Chyler Leigh's right afterwards.  I noticed that the line for Chyler was down to 1 or 2 people while there were still about a dozen people in front of me for Melissa.  It was about an hour before closing and I was worried that if Chyler's line was empty she might leave early (I've seen other cons where that is frequently done).  I asked one of the staff if they thought Chyler might leave early and was told that if she did and people still wanted her autograph they could bring her back since she was contracted for the duration.  I'd never seen that happen before and didn't want to be the cause of that.  Fortunately a few more people walked up for Chyler's autograph and it all worked out.  They usually try not to upset the celebs so I still wonder if they would actually have done that, but that's what I was told.

Well, a contract is a contract. I've seen celebs stay hours beyond floor hours (cough wizard world cough) to make sure everyone got their autographs, so I can totally see a show bringing a celeb back if they thought they could walk off or leave early because a line happened to be short.

When will tickets go on sale for photographs and/or autographs for the guests like Stan Lee and those showing from Stranger Things?

Can someone please confirm something for me.
When purchasing C2E2 tickets for this event, will you get an email for the Ticket OR do you get a ticket in the Mail?
