Sometimes events overlap a bit and setup times have to be adjusted for the group coming in. In order to make sure Con Operations is open and available for you to get what you need from us Thursday night during prereg pickup, Con Operations will be borrowing Cosplay Judging and Info's space. All departments that operate out of Con Ops, Lost & Found, Press, Programming, GR, etc. will be found here starting at 5pm for Thursday night only. We will then move to the normal designated spot on the map for Friday morning operations! Thank you for your understanding and see you soon!
The Kalahari will be providing a shuttle service throughout the weekend to help you stay warm on your way to and from the Hotel and Convention center. Just find one of the stops on the map below for a quick ride to your on-property destination! The shuttle will be running throughout the weekend during designated hours listed below:
Friday: 11 AM – 3 AM
Saturday: 10 AM – 3 AM
Sunday: 9 AM – 5 PM
In line with our current autograph system, we use a demand-based queueing method. Scheduled times are divided into 15-minute blocks, with an estimated average queue size per block. This estimate may vary for each guest depending on the speed of their line. Using this on-demand based queueing method lets you schedule the time that works best for you while maintaining your freedom to explore the con and attend other activities, rather than waiting in a line for hours! Walk-ups are welcome if a guest has no current line or queue; just ask the autographs team.
Prefer to secure your time slot in advance? You can book online at the link below for a small fee.
Pre-sign-up for autograph slots is open until Sunday, November 15, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. EST. Any remaining slots will be available at the autographs desk during the convention.
Please note: The final 30 minutes of each guest's scheduled autograph session is reserved for overflow or unforeseen issues and cannot be pre-booked. If you cannot make your reserved time, visit the autographs desk for assistance in rescheduling to an available time.
