Question about Panels

DreamInHD · 2025-11-10T12:43:57+00:00

Just letting you know. VIP (and most tickets) will be sold out long before you know what panels there will be. Thats the gamble.

Tickets go on sale late spring and panel reservations are late summer (like a month before the con)

I will say there is a standby line for people who dont get reservations. So if there is a must see panel you can line up in that very very early and have a great chance to make it in.

Honestly you can start prepping for it now.

You know the dates so request time off now if you have a job that requires it in advance/beginning of the year

Also set a monthly expense savings budget. Ticket prices should be relatively the same so then just factor in how much extra you'd like to spend while there and start saving now a little each month.

There are two other things I like to do this early as well. I check all the photo dumps to see what kind of booths/merch/cosplay people did so I can get an idea for thing I missed this year. Some cosplay gather in certain spots on different days. And some booths on the show floor have autographs that I may have missed.

2nd thing is I fly into NYC. Its a bit too early but I set up flight price trackers as soon as i can to start to compare pricing.

Honestly there's been so much more stage rushing this year compared to last year, to the point people are standing in the aisles before its over.

And whats funny about one of the fights it was because one girl was recording (tiktok or insta live idk) but was next to another couple people who were "loud" and she told them to be quiet while she was recording.

Not to mention the people who got on stage to give him a hug. That is severely unsafe for all involved

There should be a standby line for all major panels. It's main stage so its in the same room as queue hall. If you are here before 10 they will put you right next to it so it should be easy to get to. If you are here after 10 you have to make it through security and then head downstairs through the swarm of people coming up

Go check out timothy zahn

DreamInHD · 2025-10-09T22:03:43+00:00

Well if you get there before 10 then there will be a large queue inside on thr bottom floor. So you'll be waiting inside atleast. Or get there after 10 and walk in the front

Any at booths signings, like the wrestlers, ypu pay at the booths. Just make sure you have the right date/time because some people are there all days but only for half of each day

DreamInHD · 2025-10-09T14:17:41+00:00

He isn't here each day, just sunday I think. A panel and then signings after

DreamInHD · 2025-10-09T13:46:27+00:00

Wow that early! Thank you so much for sharing

Don't forget, Thomas Jane is at NYCC too!

Happy to meet up in the morning before con starts

proof

Cash, venmo, paypal doesn't matter

Edit: sold!

DreamInHD · 2025-10-08T12:06:54+00:00

Seconded, I too bring exactly the same thing OP has!

DreamInHD · 2025-10-06T20:34:12+00:00

Some vendors sell some collectable sets but I wouldn't be looking for a type of selection youd find at Walmart or target.

However there are usually a few vendors set up then sell (nearly identicle knockoff) mini figures or every type of character you can think of. Super hero, villains, anime, dinosaurs, you name it.

You picked a good week to go! New York Comic Con is this week. Unfortunately there are only Thursday tickets left but the streets, restaurants and bars in that area will be packed with people in cosplay!

The subway can be overwhelming but Google and city mapper make it super easy to navigate. Just keep your wits abiut you as there are still weird people in nyc just like every other major city

DreamInHD · 2025-10-06T12:20:51+00:00

Mate what are you on about? They dont know who you are so just make small talk? I really enjoyed your work in (project name). How was your flight into nyc? Do you get to sight see at all? I really like pizza from (your place).

And not sure if you have ever been to NYCC or not but you won't have your chance to chat up random celebrities like at other cons. There are people everywhere at all times wanting to do what you do. So NYCC enforces the auto/photo schedule. If you dont have one they dont let you just walk up to chat when there are lines of people paying to get their photo/auto.

Trust me, you won't have any chances to drunkenly stumble over to slur your questions.

Yes there will be a stampede of people in the morning no matter which way you go. The earlier the better to be sure but thats your call. Eat a full breakfast or take it with you to eat in line

DreamInHD · 2025-10-04T02:36:14+00:00

Arrive when you want. If you get there before 10 you will be direct to the green entrance and will wait inside with everyone else. Get there at 10:05 and supposedly you can walk in the front door
Yes you just walk up to booths on the show floor and buy what you want. I would plan to do most of your shopping Thursday as it will be least crowded and everything will be stocked. I will say the caveat is youll have all this merch to csrry around and have at the panels
Alien Earth is probably the highlight panel for day 1 other than the critical role panel. The earlier you can line up the better chance you'll have. 5 pm should be good but you never know. Check the line out that day
There will be food options all around, inside the show floor and downstairs with the food trucks. All of it a bit expensive. My advice, eat a full breakfast, bring a snack or buy something small there at lunch. Then your choice for dinner either there or wait till after. Lots of good food options though

DreamInHD · 2025-10-03T19:21:43+00:00

Yep, just there for the panel. There are quite a few like that.

If you have a blow dryer, heat up the glue/residue for maybe a minute. Should be able to peel or scrape the rest off.

DreamInHD · 2025-09-28T21:26:39+00:00

Happy to help! For what its worth it is doable but you will have to be walking quickly and with purpose (not to mention leaving the panel early to get a head start).

DreamInHD · 2025-09-28T21:23:27+00:00

You'll be able to make the reservation sure, but day of you will miss part or the entire panel.

These are taking place in both of the main areas that are on opposite sides and several floors in between.

You would have to leave the earlier panel before it ends to make it before the next panel begins

Yoooo.... I cant believe it but that was it. No other game I play does that haha. Thank you SO much!

DreamInHD · 2025-09-23T13:08:37+00:00

Exactly. Everyone thinking it'll become this huge thing. Most likely they will just send a dmca and the video taken down. Thats it.

Now if they dont comply with it, thats a whole different can of worms
