NYCC 2018 - Press and Pro Applications
« on: March 12, 2018, 07:41:50 AM »
My Spide-senses are tingling. 2017 they opened it up on March 20, 2016 was May 2,  and 2015 was before may but not 100% sure.

Who else will be applying. I am sure some FoCC friends will submit

I'll be applying too. Got very lucky last yr with pro so hopefully I get it again..
But then again, the circumstances last yr with approving ppl a day before sales were sorta in my favor. They were up all night and approving/denying applicants. I got my email at 2am. I won't be surprised if they were half asleep, took a glimpse and said, "F it, it sounds logical, just approve it." hahaha

Thank you, [member=1222]mllNY[/member] i applied right away! Crossing my fingers I get lucky again.
I'm guessing this means regular sales will be soon too then.
Good luck everyone who applied!

Summer is a much better timeframe for the badge sale.

Does the pricing mean that a 4-day badge is $60 or $60 each day? It's not really clear.

Applied. Now we wait. New things for this year- there is a separate application for educators and another for other pros. Also the time frame to buy your ticket is no longer only 10 days. You have until August 18th.. I’m betting regular ticket sales are the first week of June because pro notifications go out June 1.

OK so at the Drink and Think Yesterday it was mentioned the date for press opening up had been mentioned as April 25.

So mark it on your calendars.

NYCC press opens April 25.


So for some reason it got in my head that you said April 23, so I've been obsessively refreshing all morning. Ha ha... Reading comprehension, I do not have it.

Press is open,

this is such BS

NYCC Press bulls**t...
Entry into pre-show lotteries for exhibitor exclusives, private autographing, or reserved panel seating (sorry, but these are reserved for NYCC fans buying tickets)

We need to be able to go into the lotteries for panels in case we are not approved from the media outlets; also we work very hard sometimes hours and hours so to exclude is dumb...
