Another ECCC in the books. It was fun but seemed less crowded and easier to walk around each day. Is next year mid March?Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

Really? I found Thursday and Sunday to be the same as last year. Friday busier. I will admit I felt Saturday was less crowded than last year but that's a relative statement since Saturday was very very busy!
The quirks of the venue also made it difficult for ReedPOP to implement some of the technology innovations it is rolling out at other shows. A representative of Showclix, the ticketing platform serving ReedPOP and the show, explained that access control at the WSCC was so problematic that attempts to use RFID chips or other kinds of electronic badge features would have just created bottlenecks and inconvenience for attendees. [Disclosure: I have a business relationship with Showclix]. Instead, WSCC staffers checked badges at the entry points, waving people through or redirecting them to other areas if escalators or elevators were out of service.A major convention center expansion is in the works that will up the venue’s capacity to 160,000 by 2021, at least in theory. That will be a game-changer, assuming interest in events like ECCC, PAX West and Sakura Con remains high. In the meantime, Armstrong says ECCC is looking to expand content programming to the Hyatt and other nearby venues to keep the event fresh in coming years.
