Got a question for the Information Booth?

Information for details around the con (where to eat), during the con (how to reg for what), and much much more!

I have a really unrelative follow-up question. XD

Are you guys going to have an arcade set up? The details for the gaming lounge are pretty vague. If you are, would it cost us extra with direct change or go through a token method? I saw the thread but was unsure if you guys had the arcade or not and wanted to prepare if you did.

And do we need specific/special passes to get into the maid cafe or is it accessible to everyone who has admission to Anime Revolution?


Hi Angelized,

I don't think we're going to have an arcade set up... BUT, we have some surprises for you in the Vendors Room 8-) you'll have to wait until our con guide is released to find out~

As for the Maid Cafe, you don't need specific passes. Rather, you have to purchase a "meal ticket" from the Vendors Desk in the Vendors Room. There are limited quantities and the Maid Cafe is only open on Saturday, so make sure you get your tickets early!

Hope that answers all your questions :) Let me know if you have any more!

Best Regards,
Kimberly Anne

Alright so, I missed the deadline for online purchase, haha. If we buy at the door do we need a registration form of anykind? Or simply just photo ID? Thanks :D

Hey SpeakerFreak!
You don't need a registration form at all. All you need is Photo ID and an email address! And of course your form of payment - we accept cash, interac, visa, mastercard,etc.
Cya at AR!

Hi Ghostshell,

I'm arranging for a Whiteboard/Dry Erase Easel for Info Booth. If you aren't already aware, line ups for Panel Rooms and Events will be happening in Exhibit Room A. If an event/panel is changed/cancelled, then those who go to line up will find that it's not available :(. As well, Panelists are given a very strict 2 hour cancellation notice, otherwise they'll be getting a "nice" phonecall from Info Booth :evil:


Thanks, Kimberly-Anne.

Also just wondering if there was an on-line version of the layout of the con showing where all the rooms and halls are in relation to each other (basically a floor plan)? I searched the AR web-site for one, but couldn't find one.

Cheers.

Hello~! I was just wondering if I can get a few questions answered about the photobooth/autograph sessions.
Just wondering how much does it cost to get a photo taken with a guest? Like starting from.. because I want to make sure I have enough money for a photo with one of the guests. ;x
Also are you charging for autograph sessions and if yes, how much once again?
Thanks for reading. I appreciate any replies! Have a nice day. Take care.

Hey Ghostshell,

A floor plan has been made and I have seen it, but it has not been released yet. If you're concerned about accessibility between rooms, I would not worry. All the panels rooms, gaming room, viewing room, vendors/artist alley rooms, main events room, etc. are one ONE floor, with the exception of one room on Saturday that will be upstairs. Everything is in close proximity of each other - you will see once the floor plan is released whether online or in the con guide :)

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Hey ketzivaun,

The charges are dependant on the guest (as its their agencies/actors themselves that are controlling how much they charge) so I wouldn't be able to give you a definitive answer. :( Not to worry though, there are 3 ATMS (1 RBC ATM in the main lobby, 1 Scotiabank ATM in the Food Court, and 1 RBC ATM near Waterfront Skytrain) accessible within the convention centre and are short walking distance from the East Wing. Money is just a small walk away!

If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask!

Regards,
Kimberly-Anne

What kind of ID do we need? I only have my birth certificate and care card. I've been searching high and low for my student go card but I still can't find it, it's the only kind of photo ID that I have.

Hey Ghostshell, the Exhibitor Info page has a map of AR in downtown, as well as the a link to the East Wing Floor Map, which should be what you're asking for (that map at the top). We're covering all three ballrooms and Exhibition Halls A & B.

Have some sort of ID(s) that show a) your legal name, b) a photo of your face, and c) your date of birth. If you can't find your Go-Card, how about your passport ID? Or perhaps a driver's licence (not sure how old you are though).

Hope this helps both of you! Feel free to comment for any clarifications!
