I think I remember QS saying you should've been, must've been overlooked by the staff. Did the crew say you didn't need stamped? Minds a bit foggy from last year's LFCC but I think I remember asking and the crew said I had to have my hand stamped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I went with the idea to ask and they just waved me through. I won't have to wonder this year, only having day tickets for Friday and Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CillaCullen Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Not sure where to put this but at what time do they post the schedule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around a week before the event - i.e. any time now. As you can imagine: - With this many guests, photoshoots, talks, etc. it is a huge undertaking - Any movement in the lineup (new guests, cancellations) means changing it all over again and publishing an update So they want to make sure they have a good enough version before unleashing it on our impatient hands :) But it should be coming real soon!

VikingGrrrl Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 On the FAQ on the website it says this: Can I leave the building once I have entered? Yes. If you have a weekend ticket you will be given a wristband that should be kept on until the event has ended. This will grant you re-entry. If you have a day ticket you can get a hand stamp before you leave which will permit you to come back in. So according to this wristband holders don't need a stamp. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannifielding Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Hi, I hope this isn't a stupid question but it's my first con and I want to get it right XD I'm going with my boyfriend and I have a diamond pass and a standard photo pass, but my boyfriend hasn't. The website states that it's one pass per person in the shot, but if he's not in the shot can he still queue with me, or will I have to go in alone? Obviously not bothered either way, just looking to plan ahead :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjbleming Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 "Pass collection will be on a first come first served basis." Ok, a tad mixed up with that, I thought the DPs were done by purchase order, or have I misunderstood that wee bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will hand them out in a first come first served, they won't be calling people forward to collect in number order I E you can't say 'I booked in the first five minutes for Frisky McHandsom Guest, I'm going to the front' Edited July 20, 2018 by Raylenth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is purchase order. What that means is you just have to form an orderly queue and not a writing mass clamouring for passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
