FAQ

Quote

I purchased my autograph/photo ticket online, what happens next?

All customers will be emailed “print at home” tickets 1-3 business days after purchase. Combo autograph & photo ticket purchasers will receive three total tickets, one for the autograph line, one for the photo op line and one $10 coupon that can only be used at our Celebration store. Customers can print this ticket at any time, pick up your ticket in the presale ticket line (booth #141), or you can load this ticket on your smartphone device.


Will tickets be sold at Celebration?

Yes. We will be selling tickets in our booth area (#141). Please note, tickets that have been sold out during our presale will not be available for sale at Celebration.


What is the GROUP Letter found on my ticket mean?

Digital & Audio announcements will be made beginning with GROUP A and ending with GROUP E when to proceed to your respective autograph or photo ops queue line. Individuals CANNOT join a GROUP letter that precedes your assigned GROUP letter.

For an example, similar to airplane boarding, if you are assigned GROUP A, you are welcome to join all other GROUP letters. Note, you will not get line priority over other GROUP letters if you arrive after GROUP A is announced.


I have an Autograph Ticket (Includes Combo Ticket), What is the process?


Please check our schedule to get your line number.

Lines (1-9) — You will be required to PICKUP your 8x10 photo at our Photo PICKUP area located behind our ticket sales booth. Upon picking your photo, you ticket will be scanned. Then proceed to your line queue and your ticket will be scanned and the end of the queue line for the autograph.

Lines (10-19) —Proceed directly to the line queue and pick up your photo at the autograph table. Your ticket will be scanned twice, once for the 8x10 photo and once for the autograph.

Tickets are only valid for the date you purchased.

Larger photo options are available for an additional cost at our Star Wars Authentics Store located inside in our booth area.


I have a Photo Ops Ticket (Includes Combo Ticket), What is the process?

Please check our schedule. There will be two photo line queues.

Once your GROUP letter is announced, proceed to the photos ops booth for queuing, where your ticket will be scanned. After you photo is taken, you will receive an 8x10 photo after a few minutes. You will also have the option to buy additional 8x10 copies and/or a digital copy for $15 each.


I have a Combo Ticket, what is the process?

Combo tickets will be fulfilled in two separate lines. Please check our schedule.

Following directions above for autograph tickets and photo ops tickets.


I purchased the wrong date, what do I do?

You will be required to visit our customer service booth, which is located in our ticket sales area and a new ticket will be issued for the correct date. Please note, exchanges will only be made for the identical ticket in your original purchase with the corrected date. Date changes can only be made if space is available on the requested date.


I have a Jedi Master Pass, what does this entitle me to?

There will be a separate VIP Fast Lane at our ticket booth and VIP Fast Path to the autograph & photo ops queue lines. A Star Wars Authentics representative will escort VIP pass holders to their respective queue line and you will get line priority. If you require a photo pickup, you will be escorted to the PICKUP booth and you will get line priority.


I lost or can’t print my pre-sale ticket, what do I do?

Customers that have misplaced or can’t print their ticket ahead of time will have the option to pick up their passes at the pre-sale ticket counter located near the entrance of the Star Wars Authentics Autograph area at Celebration (Booth #141)

The first of these micro-stories, “BB-8 Bandits,” will be unveiled at Star Wars Celebration. The short shows Rey (voiced by Daisy Ridley) deftly avoiding a trap by Teedo (the Jakku scavenger who scoops up BB-8 in the early moments of The Force Awakens) while taking her droid pal to Niima Outpost.

It was great to be in bed in Las Vegas watching the Star Wars 40th Anniversary panel live this morning.
Thanks for the links.

An important message for all Star Wars Celebration fans. Please read!

Entrance to the show on Thursday morning was not as fast or as smooth as we wanted it to be and for that we are very sorry.  We always try to strike a balance between safety and convenience and in that spirit we made some changes that we hope will make Friday and the rest of your Star Wars Celebration experience much better.

We are adding additional entrance points around the building that we believe will ease access to the building and make things smoother for you. We will continue to use the West Lobby E/F as our main entrance and we are also adding the C Lobby (right in the middle of the building) and the Westwood Lobby behind the building as additional entrance points for fans. That makes three different locations that will allow fans to enter the building instead of one. We are also adding additional will call/ticket pickup stations at each entrance location for those fans that need to pick up their tickets.

Doors to the main entrance at the West Lobby E/F will open at 5am and the two new additional entrances will open at 6am. Upon entering the building all fans will be directed to the Queue Hall for all Galaxy and Celebration stage panel wrist-banding and entrance to the show floor.

The Celebration Sleepover procedures for this evening will stay the same. Starting at 8pm the queue hall will open for fans planning on spending the night. 
We thank you for your patience and we think these changes will help you get into the building faster for the rest of the weekend. May the Force be with you!

According to a friend of mine there, this Con has been hell on Earth. She said even this morning they screwed up and let a bunch of people crash a barrier and move ahead of those who camped for The Last Jedi Panel (which she camped for).....she says she will never go to another ReedPop Con again!! :o

It needs to go back to Anaheim then. ;)

Btw, still seeing the Celebration store being a pain to get in and to checkout.

Just reading the complaints on social media, it seems like it was so poorly thought out.
They were never organized to handle this many people, not enough staff and security.
Plus they probably sold too many tickets.
I thought about going but I'm so glad I didn't, I'm watching all the panels live from the comfort of my own home.

If I was there I probably would have given up and gone to Epcot to drown my sorrows.

Yeah it sounds awful. My friend just said after a 2 hour wait for her current panel they ended ut halfway through due to technical issues.

Lordy!!!! Seems like maybe the Orlando CC staff is incompetent?  I don't remember hearing of all these issues in Anaheim
