Important Membership Information

Before purchasing your membership, please read through the following important information on I-CON Memberships: You must purchase a membership to attend I-CON. Even if you just want to browse in the Dealers Room or play one roleplaying game, you must buy a membership first!

 

Acceptable Methods of Payment:

• Cash: Acceptable at-the-door and in specified stores selling I-CON Memberships
• Check: Will not be accepted at Convention Box Office.
• Credit Card: Acceptable via online purchase through our website and at the I-CON 29 box office

 

What's a Membership?

We don't sell tickets to our annual convention. Instead, you are purchasing a membership to the I-CON 29 event. Anyone can purchase a membership and all we require is your name, address, and payment.

 

Memberships Purchased at the Convention Box Office:

The only discounts available at the door are for students or senior citizens (with ID).

 

I Pre-Registered - How do I get my membership?

Memberships are not mailed out. All memberships purchased in advance through our various Pre-Registration options must be picked up at the convention's Pre-Reg Membership area. ID will be required to pick up your badge.

 

Student Membership Discount:

Student memberships are available for any current junior high, high school, or college students. If you purchase your student membership through the mail, you must include a photocopy of your valid, current student ID. If your junior high or high school does not issue IDs, we will accept a letter of verification from your school's office on school stationery. Have your ID with you to purchase memberships at all locations, and when you pick up your badge at the convention. Teachers are charged the student rate, provided they have a relevant ID or a letter from their principal (or other applicable administrator). Seniors age 62 and over also qualify for this rate with valid ID.

 

Store Membership Sales:

We will also be selling memberships at some of your favorite hobby and comic book stores. This list of stores can be found at the bottom of this page.

 

Promotional Release:

By Purchasing a membership to I-CON, Members agree to have their likeness recorded for future promotion in audio/video, print, and web related materials and waive any claim to compensation for that use. Members should be aware that Photography and Video footage gathered by I-CON staff, designated third party representives such as costume portrait vendors, or certain memebers of Press, in public areas of the convention, including our Dealer's Room, events, and panels, may be used in video, and future I-CON promotions, and that Members may appear in these advertisments without compensation. I-CON will require a release only for Photos/Video footage that is obtained in areas that are not fully public (i.e. private functions and personal interviews).

 

One Day Memberships:

ARE NOT AVAILABLE BY MAIL. One day memberships will be available for purchase at our convention Box Office during the event.

 

Confirmation Letters:

Will NOT be sent for advance purchases except by request. Your cancelled check or your Paypal confirmation is your receipt. If you want a confirmation letter, you must send a Self Addressed Stamped Envelope (SASE) with your order form by March 1, 2010. NO confirmation letters will be sent for any orders received after March 1, 2010.
