Title: WonderCon 2017 Pro-Reg?
Post by: RSilvaConFan on December 25, 2016, 05:41:17 AM
Has Wondercon pro-reg for 2017 started? When I go into the memberID registration section - it just has Attendee info for Wondercon but the Wondercon pro-reg faqs say that pro-reg is now open. Anybody have any info on this?

FAQ still has 2016 info.:

WonderCon 2016 Registration is now OPEN!  There will be no onsite professional registration. Online professional registration will close - without notice - when it reaches capacity. Applications and verification materials are due March 4, 2016.

Hoping they 2017 refresh several areas of WC tabs - pros, press, hotels - after the holiday break.

Thanks :)

I didn't notice that the info was still for 2016 - sorry about that - I even sent an email to Comic-con support - Oh well - maybe they will remember to remove old info after the events over - between WonderCon info and Comic-con info - those dates can get confusing!

RSilvaConFan, Did you ever find out about proreg? I logged in today and there's no info for WonderCon on the Professionals tab, only SDCC... My trade materials are all good, but I don't want to have to buy the badge unless I have to.

Any word?

Forum Housekeeping:

Edited the title of this thread to include "2017" to help clarify which year as well as for easier referencing in the future.  ^__~

Does anyone have any inside info on when Wondercon Proreg for 2017 is supposed to start?

Was really hoping for some information by today - most likely going to have to cut Wondercon from my plans if no info on pro-reg surfaces in the next week or so.

According to this thread, it looks like 2016 Pro Reg went live on 2/17: http://www.friendsofcc.com/forum/index.php?topic=5801.0 (http://www.friendsofcc.com/forum/index.php?topic=5801.0)

So, hopefully we can expect some news for 2017 Pro Reg this week? After all, they'd need to allow anyone who already purchased a badge the time to refund it, and the refund deadline is 2 weeks from today... ???
