Wondercon to Expand Exhibit Space for 2015?
« on: January 27, 2015, 08:31:38 PM »
Hey guys,

So I was looking at the Anaheim Convention Center's schedule and it seems that this year CCI has rented out EVERY exhibit hall space, A-E. Last year (and the year before), they had only rented out A,B and E or A,B and C and E. With A mostly being queue for the Arena last year. Does this mean that we will finally get a 3rd exhibit hall for WonderCon (A - Queue for Arena, B - Exhibit, C - Exhibit, D- Exhibit, E - Badge)? If so WonderCon would be insanely huge!

What do you guys think?

I would LOVE that.

I would also be ok if they had a lower booth density for wider aisles.

But I'm wishing again so I will also wish for a pony again.  :)

Yes, and be sure to stop suddenly a lot too.  :)

Well Wondercon is a good deal more laid back than SDCC, so you should be able to go at you own pace with no problem.

I agree with Kevin. WonderCon is much more laid back. Because we are at Disneyland in the mornings, we don't even arrive until noonish and never have a problem getting into the things we want to see. There are a few things you have to 'line up' for, but always less than an hour.
