Pre-Registration
You can pre-register at our registration site located at AnimeUSARegistration.org or click the link on the main menu.
Membership Types
We have three different levels of membership types: Regular, Silver and Sponsor.
- Regular: This level entails you to a registration bag with program book and convention badge that gives normal access to any convention event except for the few which have additional registration or participation fees (e.g., reception parties or CCG tournaments). Regular registrations obtained by pre-registering are good for all three days of the convention. Regular memberships will also be available at the door and will be good for three days (Fri-Sun), two days (Sat & Sun) or just Sunday, depending on the date the badge was purchased.
- Silver: A Silver membership entails you to all the above mentioned benefits with the addition of a 2013 convention T-shirt and a 2013 convention pin. Silver memberships are limited to a total of 300 members only.
- Sponsor: Sponsor memberships are entitled to all of the benefits of the Silver sponsorship plus the following: priority entry into event spaces, 30 minutes early access to the dealer’s room, and their names listed in a special Thank You section of the 2013 Program Guide. Please arrive early or at starting time for Maid Cafe and Host Club for priority entry. Sponsor memberships are available for purchase online only and are limited to a total of 100 members.
