VIP includes a swag bag and guaranteed panel seating. Premium includes a swag bag, convention t-shirt, priority panel seating, and guest room line-jumping privileges.We will make that decision based on weekend pass sales, and not until much later in 2018.We are looking toward the convention’s future growth in general, but specifically, we do not have the luxury of a Kickstarter campaign to start us off with a large lump sum and extra funds which did not come from ticket sales. In order to move forward as an event we must ensure we have the budget to provide a standard that matches (and hopefully exceeds!) the previous year’s con. We are still dedicated to being not-for-profit; all the money we make will be used to make Beach City Con 2018 and beyond a quality experience for everyone involved.Of course! Email us at vendors@beachcitycon.com programming@beachcitycon.com to be notified when applications become available. Please note you must be 18 or older at the time of the convention to volunteer; additionally, panelists do not receive free passes to the convention.We have secured additional conference space at our venue and will be able to offer 1000 passes for 2018.
