Getting a Comic-Con badge is no easy task. HANG ON TO YOUR BADGE! (Yes, we’re shouting at you.) Not only do you need it to get in the door each day at the Convention Center, you also need it to access our events at our satellite areas, at the Hilton Bayfront, the Marriott Marquis, the Manchester Grand Hyatt, and some other offsite areas. Your badge also contains your personal information in the barcode on the front. You will also need your badge if you are eligible to participate in Comic-Con 2014 online preregistration, so keep it AFTER Comic-Con, too! Do NOT give your badge to anyone—friend, family-member, or total stranger—at any time. (PS: Take your badge with you when you go out to eat, too! Area restaurants will be offering special deals for Comic-Con attendees!)
