ECCC Panel Reservations
What Is A Reservation?
Reservations are a new way to guarantee your seat to see a Main Stage panel, to secure your spot in our cosplay workshops, or to snag an autograph from some of our authors who will be at the show. This way, you'll be able to plan out your ECCC ahead of time rather than wait in another line, not knowing if you’ll get into that panel room or into that signing!
Are Reservations Required at ECCC?
Reservations are a way to guarantee your spot in the most popular panels, most in-demand free author signings, and more. While there will be limited standby on site, we cannot guarantee you will get in without a reservation. You must have a valid ECCC ticket for the day you’re attending to use your reservations.
Set those alarms for the below dates!

Important Notes:
- Reservations are limited. When the queue opens, everyone will enter at the same time and spots will be assigned randomly. Reservations will be available on a first-come, first-served basis once you get through the queue.
- Make sure you’re only adding in the Reservations you want. Once you’ve completed the Reservations process, you will not be able to remove or change anything you have selected.
- Everyone needs to make their own reservations separately. If you are attending with a group, each individual fan must make a reservation for themselves. Children attending with Kids tickets may accompany a parent under a single reservation.
- You must have a valid ECCC ticket for the day you’re attending to use your reservations.
