the creation entertainment difference

Unlike so many other genre conventions, Creation Entertainment has a strict company policy not to "oversell" our conventions. In other words, every patron, no matter what bracket of ticket they purchase, will have a seat in the main auditorium where the major guests appear and events take place. Nothing upsets us more than hearing about other conventions that sell tickets to patrons and then those very same patrons have to wait on additional lines inside the facility to get into (or sometimes not!) the main theatre. An important Creation Entertainment difference we want you to know about!

The Creation difference extends to our 40 years experience in running fan conventions. In the last few years we've seen promoter after promoter fail taking hard earned ticket money down with them. Inexperienced promoters, often first-timers, use celebrity images and names to get ticket money which they use to hopefully pay their expenses. When that fails they've already gone through "your" ticket money and they collapse leaving no recourse for ticket holders. They say "buyer beware" but this has happened in other conventions and we really feel for those great fans who have lost their ticket money and upset travel plans.

**All Convention tickets have a $8.50 shipping/handling fee charged per ticket ordered. This applies to all online, phone, fax and mail orders.

***Attention Attendees: Do not purchase Creation Tickets from scalpers or anyone trying to offer tickets as you arrive at our convention locations. Each ticket is checked for authenticity at the door with a scanner and we can not let you in if your ticket is counterfeit (which has happened recently). Each ticket once scanned makes any and all copies of that same one of a kind scan void and we can only let the first person in with it. Please only buy your tickets only from Creation in advance or at the door, we seen too many nice folks lose their hard earned money this way and be turned away. Thanks, we appreciate your support!

WANT TO VOLUNTEER AT THIS CONVENTION? GREAT, IT IS MUCH APPRECIATED!
Please email our volunteer coordinator:
and let us know which convention you would like to volunteer.
PLEASE NOTE: You must be 21 years old or over to volunteer.

We really appreciate your help in publicizing this event on-line. Grab our banners to put on your site!

ALL GUESTS are contracted to appear and all convention contracts specify that appearances are tentative and subject to change as film and television work demands take precedence as can a personal conflict. Our events will take place whether a specific guest cancels or not (we always try to book replacements) and therefore we can not issue admission ticket or ticket package refunds if a particular guest does not fulfill their appearance contract. Of course we will always refund separately purchased photo ops and autograph tickets for a guest if they cancel.

PHOTO TAKING POLICY AT THIS CONVENTION
We know that taking photos makes the convention even more fun and we thought it would be a good idea to share our photo taking policies for you before you arrive at the convention so you can prepare. In the auditorium, photo taking is encouraged, but only from your seat. It is unfair to run up to the stage and block the view of others who have paid for reserved seats in front of you. Even if there are empty seats, patrons must sit in the seats they paid for to be fair to everyone. Due to fire marshall regulations everyone must be seated during performances. Please also be courteous to your neighbors when taking pictures. Photo taking is not allowed during autographing sessions nor during the photo ops. Only those people who have autograph tickets may come up to get autographs. At the Gold Exclusive Parties and Breakfast: photo taking is encouraged when the guests arrive (but only from your seats). After a sufficient time for all to get their photos we ask that your cameras be placed down so the celebrities can enjoy their time at the two food functions. Thank you for understanding the need to have these few rules so everyone is safe and has fun.

The vast majority of our guest celebrities take questions from the audience during their on-stage time. Therefore it is incumbent upon those that ask questions to make them ones that allow our mutual shared time with the celebrities to be enjoyable, interesting and entertaining for all (including the guest). Asking for hugs, telling stars we love them (we all do, that's why we're here), giving gifts, getting into long personal stories, or worse, is not acceptable for this format and, in fact, is quite self-centered when you are in essence "representing" all of fandom to a celebrity. Join us in trying to make this convention the best entertainment for everyone!

In the event of convention cancellations or date changes Creation Entertainment is not responsible for patrons' costs involving travel or hotel accommodations or any other non convention ticket expenses.

Advance ticket sales are generally turned off early to mid-week of the week of the events. Tickets, if they are not sold out, are sold at the convention of course.

Creation celebrates our many years of Convention Memories

Issac Asimov
Here's a pic of the legendary sci-fi author/genius Isaac Asimov, a frequent visitor to our early conventions and quite a character as well! It is amazing that we got to work with him after reading so many of his books.

Young Hercules Ryan Gosling
From the "you never know" category, here in the middle is "Young Hercules" at our Official Hercules/Xena Convention (pictured with his co-stars from that short lived series). He's better known by his real name today: Ryan Gosling, an incredible actor doing wonderful work in feature films.

Karl Urban, Kevin Smith and Danielle Cormack
Back in the heyday of Xena popularity we had the pleasure of meeting some of New Zealand's top talents as they often guested on the series which was filmed in that beautiful country. Left to right: Karl Urban who went onto major stardom as Star Trek's new Dr. McCoy, Kevin Smith, one of our all-time favorite guests, on the verge of international fame when he was killed in a tragic accident, and Danielle Cormack who continues to perform in New Zealand.

Robert Englund
For over two decades we had the pleasure of presenting the country's leading horror fan conventions, Fangoria's Weekend of Horrors with the popular magazine and illustrious editor Tony Timpone. These shows were a breeding ground for up and coming genre talent and that makes us proud. Here, one of the icons of the field, Robert Englund, on stage.

Bruce Lee Action Figure
During one crazy phase we started manufacturing action figures and selling them in Toys R Us amongst other national retailers. Bruce Lee was probably are most realistic looking figure, but we also had success with Saturday Night Live figures and Drew and Mimi from The Drew Carey Show.

Farscape Convention
It had one of the most loyal and passionate fan movements behind it and a gloriously talented cast of performers working with amazing and intelligent scripts. We were delighted to be associated with this incredible and still missed series and it was always a special pleasure to work with star Ben Browder.

Early Creation Convention
We were ahead of the times back in the 80's with conventions mixing all sorts of fan favorites together. Usually all the different fandoms got along and it is nice to see that Dr. Who is more popular than ever. We were licensees back in the day and worked with many of the earlier Doctors, including, of course, the larger than life Tom Baker.

Official Star Trek Convention San Francisco
Here is a scene from a recent Official Star Trek Convention in San Francisco with Brent Spiner on stage speaking to a sold out crowd.

DeForest Kelly
There was never any guest nicer than the amazing DeForest Kelley who graced our stages many, many times always putting on a warm and entertaining presentation for his legions of dedicated fans. He was just as cool as you would want him to be!

Nimoy and Quinto
The only time this ever happened: Three Mr. Spocks on stage, a really special moment

Spock Bust
It all started with a Mr. Spock head: our entry into the world of Star Trek merchandising began full time when we purchased 1,000 of these 35 years ago or so. We still have a few left!

Star Trek 45th Anniversary
Every five year anniversary marks a special time to remember for Star Trek fans and our conventions take on an air of a family reunion of long-time fans and the stars we all admire. Sadly we also mark the loss of some of those talents who appeared with us regularly at our events. They are missed.

TV Land Store
One of our most fun to run conventions was The Official TV LAND Convention. Here is the convention store we set up offering goodies to fellow TV fanatics!

Larry Hagman
This is pretty cool: Sam Rubin interviewed legendary Larry Hagman at our TV Land Convention, sadly a one-time only gathering, but did we ever enjoy meeting so many of our all-time favorite TV stars!

Tim Conway
Another wonderful moment from the TV Land Convention: here's the hilarious Tim Conway regaling the audience with anecdotes about his career that has spanned decades.

TV Land
Dick Martin, George Schlatter and Alan Sues at the TV Land Convention

Creation's Amazing Panel
Here's an amazing panel we did in LA at the famed Biltmore Hotel: Forry Ackerman, Ray Bradbury, Ray Harryhausen and John Landis!

Jack King Kirby
Comic book and entertainment fans owe much to the legendary JACK KIRBY, the revered talent who co-created the Marvel mythology and made many early appearances with us, among his most devoted followers. Although his passing never allowed Jack to see the amazing success of his characters in film we do know that his appearances at conventions always brought down the house!

John Noble
It is always great when we can personally thank a performer for an absolutely beautifully done job and that was just the treat when John Noble appeared in Feb. of 2013 wrapping up his epic FRINGE series, one of our all-time favorite shows!

Alfre Woodard
The beautiful and talented Alfre Woodard graced her stages to reminisce about her appearance in Star Trek as Lily in the movie Star Trek: First Contact, but of course she is best known for being an Academy Award and Grammy nominated actress as well as having an incredible 17 Emmy nominations (winning four).

William Shatner, Sir Patrick Stewart and Leonard Nimoy
Our Vegas Star Trek Convention is ALWAYS full of surprises! Sir Patrick Stewart joins William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy in this once in a lifetime moment! We're glad we were there!

Star Trek Captains
The impeccable Ricardo Montalban created Star Trek's most popular villian as Khan but in person he truly was one of a kind and his two appearances for us were definitely amongst the most memorable! He is sorely missed by all Trekkers and was indeed a Hollywood classic himself!

Star Trek Captains
Gracious and supportive to us as ever William Shatner made sure first time Creation guest star Joan Collins (in her only convention appearance) was comfortable on stage, reunited decades after their ultra-popular classic Trek appearance together!

Star Trek Captains
As promised, a seat for all! Here's a scene of the amazing theatre we used for years for our Las Vegas Star Trek Convention. At Creation shows: no waiting and worrying about seeing the stars!

Star Trek Captains
Pretty Cool we'd say to have welcomed the ultra talented Elijah Wood as Creation promoted several Official LORD OF THE RINGS events.

Here's some shots of Leonard Nimoy's last convention appearance (courtesy of Paul Harvath), taken at our Chicago 2011 Official STAR TREK Convention. Thank You Leonard for your three decade association with Creation: we've loved every minute of presenting you to your adoring fans (of which we number ourselves!):

March 13, 2018: We have recently added new guests JARED GILMORE, JASON BURKHART, ALEX ZAHARA and artist JASON PALMER, We have just beeen advised that Gil McKinney is unable to make the convention due to booking acting work. Those who purchased separate Gil autographs or photo ops will receive a voucher at registration good for the purchase of any other autograph or photo op ticket, or any Creation produced merchandise in the vendors room, or any admission ticket. If you would prefer a refund please send THE VOUCHER to Creation, 217 South Kenwood, Glendale, CA 91205. Attention: Ed within one month of the close of the convention.

February 21, 2018: We are pleased to respond to many requests to add Rebecca Mader to our guest list. She was awesome last tour and will no doubt be an incredible addition to 2018’s visits as well.

February 21, 2018: Today we also received this note from Michael Coleman: It is incredibly heartbreaking to think anyone could accuse me of taking advantage of my position in life or the areas of trust imbued upon me. I adamantly deny any wrong doing and I am confident the truth will be revealed soon.

This being said, out of the incredible respect I have for Creation Entertainment, the cast of Once Upon a Time, and the fans of this magical project I believe it is best if I withdraw from the Vancouver convention so as to not be a distraction of any kind.

I am confident this matter will resolve itself soon and complete transparency will clear up any rumors or misunderstandings.

Please have an incredible time and share your love and stories with the cast and with each other. These conventions are truly a highlight for us with this once in a lifetime series.

FROM CREATION: For those that have purchased separate autograph tickets or photo ops of Mr. Coleman we will be giving you a voucher good for any other autograph, photo op, admission ticket or Creation produced merchandise at the convention. If you would prefer a refund please send the voucher within one month of the close of the convention to Creation, 27 South Kenwood, Glendale, Ca 91205. Attention: Ed. For Gold Patrons, we received this note while we are at another convention and are working to give all Gold Patrons a hand signed autograph photo of a OUAT celebrity that is not at the convention. This is tentative pending our return to the office so we can see what we can offer but we believe we can do so, but we wanted to get the above message on the site asap.

Check back here for future guest information, we will also attempt to send out announcements to those on our OUAT email bulletin list when we land new guests and events.

Customer Support E-Mail: ANY problem you have please write to us at: customer.service@creationent.com and we'll look into it and get right back to you. Thanks!

Regarding the issue of alcoholic beverages at the convention: we do not allow alcohol to be present in our function rooms including the main theatre. This includes daily panel events and any night events. We kindly ask, for the evening event(s), you do not bring bags unless necessary. Water stations will be available in the room and, for those that have special medical needs, you can discreetly discuss those with security before entering and we will do bag checks. We regret that we've had to take this measure, but we must protect our audience and celebrities and we’ve been advised that this is a necessity. We retain the right not to allow entrance into any of the events to anyone who shows up appearing intoxicated.

ADA Rules on service animals: This event welcomes service animals as per The ADA rules. Service animals perform valuable work or tasks and are trained to provide help directly related to a person's disability. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the ADA and therefore are not permitted at our event.

All guests are announced when contracted, and all convention contracts include clauses allowing actors to cancel if they get film and/or television work. In the rare case of a guest cancellation we always try to do our best to replace performers. We cannot, however, refund tickets for a convention admission based on a guest cancellation, beyond of course specific autograph and/or photo op tickets which are not included in packages.

For those attending our conventions and making travel plans: please know that the majority of guests that appear on stage do so usually in the later part of the day (although that is sometimes different for actors working on a current series). Sometimes autographing runs into the evening or later when guests appear late in the day. Because we have to wait for guests to give us their flight information we cannot tell you in advance when these autograph sessions will occur until the convention schedule is posted at this website a few days before the event. For those out of towners that want to guarantee autographs of stars appearing on Sunday we do suggest staying over or planning a later leaving time.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL! We do suggest buying tickets only from the original source: through this website. Because all tickets are scanned for use at the convention we can ONLY allow the first person in using each singular ticket. Autograph and photo op tickets are also scanned for one time use. WE’VE NOTICED A PICKUP IN BOGUS TICKETS and well-meaning fans being ripped off by those that have just resold copied tickets.

Flashes occur from phone and cameras often during stage presentations. If you are sensitive to such lighting please be advised to take the necessary precautions. For our attendees please keep flash photography to a minimum and try to learn how to get the best pictures in different lighting situations. Generally flash is not the best way to take photos at the convention. We will attempt to have a more detailed note page of getting the best pictures at conventions available soon.

Events

Unlike other genre conventions, Creation Entertainment has a strict policy to not "oversell" tickets. Every attendee, no matter what ticket they purchase, will have a seat in the main auditorium to see the major guests and join the main events! We believe in a more personal convention for fans, by fans, that leaves you with memories that last a lifetime!

Creation Entertainment has the right to refuse service to anyone who interferes with the safety and well-being of other patrons, staff, actors, Creation Entertainment and the establishment itself. This includes, but is not limited to, harassment of any kind both in advance and/or at a particular event, illegal activity, unreasonable rowdiness, patrons lacking adequate hygiene and inconsideration to others. Refusal of service shall never be based on race or color, National origin or citizenship status, religion or creed, sex, age, disability, pregnancy or genetic information, Veteran or Military status, marital status, sexual orientation or gender identity, medical condition, political affiliations or activities, or status as a victim of domestic violence, assault or stalking.

Taking place FRIDAY NIGHT and featuring, so far, celebrities tentatively including Beverley Elliott, Chris Gauthier, Alex Zahara, Jason Burkart, Jared Gilmore and those(generally but not always) appearing on Friday on stage. But you never really know who will show up!

Singers are our audience members backed up by the stars also, so it’s a lot of great interactive fun for all and FREE TO EVERYONE. Because front rows are removed this is not a seated event; there are seats in the back of the theatre for those that just want to chill and enjoy.

There will be official photographs shot from studio source, great T-shirts and tentatively apparel, jewelry, mugs and glassware, banners and posters, autographed items, and more! This is THE place to be for collectors!

PLEASE NOTE: Because we are a merchandise licensee of ABC Television for ONCE UPON A TIME, only products licensed by the studio are permitted for sale at the convention. Other vendors of other genre merchandise or things that might appeal to this audience are invited to attend as well. For our attendees we wanted you to know that the vendors area is small. Because of this fact, we didn't want anyone to come expecting a huge dealers room. Please also note as this is only in the early days of The Official ONCE UPON A TIME Convention Tour we are in the process of ramping up our merchandise line and bringing in new vendors.

Tickets

WANNA SIT WITH YOUR FRIENDS?!?
FOR ALL RESERVED SEATING TICKETS (everything other than general admission single day or general admission weekend packages) IF YOU WANT TO SIT NEAR FRIENDS YOU MUST ORDER ALL THE TICKETS TOGETHER UNDER ONE ORDER.

Please make sure to bring ALL your printed out tickets to the convention as we cannot replace any tickets forgotten or lost. This holds true for all ticket-buyers domestic and outside of the United States as we no longer have a will-call or hold ticket desk. Our convention sites generally have a business office where you can print out your tickets if you have left them home by mistake. Once you present your ticket(s) at registration, photo op areas, or autograph sessions they will be scanned for legitimacy and one-time use only. Thanks!

Please do not purchase tickets second hand.

There have been too many people who unfortunately are copying their scannable tickets and reselling them to unsuspecting patrons. We turn away any ticket that comes ups SCANNED ALREADY and will let ONLY the first person in.

The only way to avoid this issue is NOT to buy tickets from anywhere but Creation’s website or at the convention itself at registration.

Please note: if you have autographs in a package you have purchased you are free to “gift” these to other people as long as they have some sort of admission ticket to the convention. Special exclusive events, like the private Gold Session, are for certain packages are should not be resold as the lanyard card and wristband must match for complimentary entrance to these events.

Customer support e-mail: ANY problem you have please write to us at:
and we'll look into it and get right back to you. Thanks!

 

NOTE: You may buy Photo Op and Autograph tickets before buying an Admission ticket, but you need an Admission Ticket in order to use the Photo Op and Autograph tickets. Please buy an Admission ticket as soon as you can as we can never guarantee Admission tickets won't sell out before the show. Join our free email list to get updates on ticket availability.

Gold Weekend Package

 

GOLD WEEKEND ADMISSION PACKAGE At this early time we are happy to announce the on sale of our top-of-the-line, best-in-show GOLD WEEKEND ADMISSION PACKAGES!

This is the absolutely the most upscale and best way to attend the entire convention and getting you the following amazing benefits at the VANCOUVER 2018 Official ONCE UPON A TIME Convention.

1) The absolute best reserved seats in the main theatre where all our major guests appear and daytime events occur! This seat is yours so you can come and go freely, and you can actually pick out your seat on our floor plan ticketing system! Great for photographers too!

2) Complimentary in-person autographs with great guests including LANA PARRILLA, COLIN O’DONOGHUE, BEVERLEY ELLIOTT, LEE ARENBERG, KAREN DAVID AND CHRIS GAUTHIER. The value of these autographs, if bought separately, is a large amount of the cost of the Gold Package, so you can see just one reason why this is such an awesome deal! As of November 21: Due to Michael Coleman’s cancellation, we will have a hand signed photo of another Once Upon a Time star not present at the convention for our gold patrons. As of March 13: We have just found out today, while preparing for transit to Vancouver that Gil McKinney has booked a commercial and can not be with us. We therefore will be bringing a second hand signed autographed photo of a star from OUAT not appearing at this year’s convention for our Gold Patrons. These will be randomly given out.

3) First to get autographs: we go row by row: you are in the front rows: you get the idea! THAT'S RIGHT: you get to our guests earlier than our other attendees: after all "going gold" does have its benefits!

4) Complimentary admission to our "SATURDAY NIGHT ONCE UPON A CONCERT” starring MC Lee Arenberg and other performers including Rebecca Mader, Karen David, Beverley Elliott and Chris Gauthier. You keep your same great seats you have for the day for this event as well! Performers are tentative and subject to change and of course additions.

5) Preregistration: We get you set for the weekend before other patrons (generally the night before the convention occurs we have preregistration) and give you first crack at the exclusive merchandise, and any available autograph and photo op tickets! Preregistration generally takes place Thursday night and early Friday morning. Preregistration is not a necessity, just a convenience. You can register anytime registration is open.

6) Wristband access: we have special color-coded wristbands and collectible lanyard credentials for GOLD Package Holders: once you get set you don't need to wait again!

7) Enjoy two Gold Exclusive half hour panels! Sunday's first exclusive panel features Lana Parrilla and Rebecca Mader, and on Saturday see Colin O'Donoghue and Rose Reynolds! Both panels are more intimate events where the celebrities can interact more directly with you, the fans, and are in addition to the star's regular appearances.

8) Complimentary Admission to our FRIDAY NIGHT KARAOKE PARTY, please note that seats are removed from the front area for this so there is not reserved seating. There are chairs in the back of the room though for folks that just want to relax and chill.

9) Admission to the vendors area.

10) The right to renew your same exact seat (or try to do better) for the following year's convention in VANCOUVER, if applicable.

11) And our most extraordinary BENEFIT: ON SATURDAY MORNING, 1 1/2 HOUR EXCLUSIVE TOURS OF THE SETS OF THE SERIES, BUS TRANSPORTATION INCLUDED, AND TOURING DONE BY THE EXECUIVE PRODUCER OF THE SERIES STEVEN PEARLMAN. YOU WILL BE CONTACTED PRIOR TO THE CONVENTION WITH YOUR TOUR TIME. STILL PHOTOGRAPHY IS ALLOWED, A RELEASE WAIVER FORM MUST BE SIGNED PRIOR TO BOARDING THE BUS. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THIS TOUR IS BY BEING A GOLD PATRON OF THE CONVENTION.

GOLD WEEKEND ADMISSION PACKAGE: $899 USD

Available in limited quantities.


Available tickets will be on sale at the convention.

March 13, 2018: We have recently added new guests JARED GILMORE, JASON BURKHART, ALEX ZAHARA and artist JASON PALMER, We have just beeen advised that Gil McKinney is unable to make the convention due to booking acting work. Those who purchased separate Gil autographs or photo ops will receive a voucher at registration good for the purchase of any other autograph or photo op ticket, or any Creation produced merchandise in the vendors room, or any admission ticket. If you would prefer a refund please send THE VOUCHER to Creation, 217 South Kenwood, Glendale, CA 91205. Attention: Ed within one month of the close of the convention.

February 21, 2018: We are pleased to respond to many requests to add Rebecca Mader to our guest list. She was awesome last tour and will no doubt be an incredible addition to 2018’s visits as well.

February 21, 2018: Today we also received this note from Michael Coleman: It is incredibly heartbreaking to think anyone could accuse me of taking advantage of my position in life or the areas of trust imbued upon me. I adamantly deny any wrong doing and I am confident the truth will be revealed soon.

This being said, out of the incredible respect I have for Creation Entertainment, the cast of Once Upon a Time, and the fans of this magical project I believe it is best if I withdraw from the Vancouver convention so as to not be a distraction of any kind.

I am confident this matter will resolve itself soon and complete transparency will clear up any rumors or misunderstandings.

Please have an incredible time and share your love and stories with the cast and with each other. These conventions are truly a highlight for us with this once in a lifetime series.

FROM CREATION: For those that have purchased separate autograph tickets or photo ops of Mr. Coleman we will be giving you a voucher good for any other autograph, photo op, admission ticket or Creation produced merchandise at the convention. If you would prefer a refund please send the voucher within one month of the close of the convention to Creation, 27 South Kenwood, Glendale, Ca 91205. Attention: Ed. For Gold Patrons, we received this note while we are at another convention and are working to give all Gold Patrons a hand signed autograph photo of a OUAT celebrity that is not at the convention. This is tentative pending our return to the office so we can see what we can offer but we believe we can do so, but we wanted to get the above message on the site asap.

Note: Patrons must bring an item for celebrities to sign. You can bring something from home or purchase a photo or other collectible in the vendors room. Please feel free to purchase as many autograph tickets of a particular celebrity as you'd like.

Note: Guests appear ONE day of the convention, so therefore their autographing and/or photo ops take place that day, except in VERY rare occasions which will be noted. If you are not attending all days of the convention it is wise to wait until specific days of appearance are announced before purchasing autographs or photo ops. You must have an admission ticket to the convention to get autographs or photo ops.

Photo-Ops

PHOTO OP TICKETS

Photo Op tickets do not include admission to the convention. You must have an admission ticket for the convention to enter into the photo op areas. Due to security considerations and guest concerns we cannot facilitate the giving of gifts to guests at the photo op sessions. YOUR ONE PHOTO OP TICKET CAN INCLUDE UP TO TWO FANS. YOU ARE ALLOWED TO HAVE UP TO FOUR FANS IN A PHOTO, HOWEVER TO DO THAT YOU WOULD NEED TO PURCHASE TWO TICKETS (TWO FANS TIMES TWO TICKETS = FOUR FANS). Because of logistics and timing and at the request of our guests and photographers we cannot accommodate over FOUR fans in any one photo op.

If you’d like a pose, you can tell it to the guests, but please make sure you have your pose ready to go. Bring a picture that shows the pose if you think you may have a hard time explaining it. If you have props, please make sure they are easily held and ready to go.

Due to time constraints, here are some of the things we cannot allow: putting on clothing, blankets, ties etc…, floor poses, handcuffs, rose petals, confetti or anything that creates a mess that requires clean up. Please do not asked to be picked up in the photo. We obviously do not want anyone to get hurt.

Please know, that if you want a hug, go for a “hug shot”. Please do not ask for a hug before or after the photo is taken as it takes up someone else’s photo op time.

Your photo will be taken by Creation's all knowing and super-powerful official staff photographers. They take the best pictures, make the stars comfortable & willing to pose more freely with fans, and generally are beloved by all. JUST CLICK TO OUR E-MAIL FEEDBACK SECTION TO READ ABOUT HOW GREAT CREATION PHOTO OPS ARE! Please read: PHOTO OP F.A.Q.

** Please note that we cannot accept "on cell phone" tickets for autograph and photo op sessions so you must print them out at home and bring them to the convention on paper, not your phone. Thank you! We can accept "on cellphone" tickets for admission however.

Photo ops may be used for PERSONAL USE ONLY. Photo ops may not be used in whole or part, disseminated or distributed for profit or otherwise in any way.

Beverages are not allowed to be brought into the photo op room. Thanks!

Patrons violating these rules may be expelled from the convention (without a refund) at Creation's discretion and hotel security may well be called in to facilitate this response. If you have any issues with anyone, please ask to speak to Adam, Gary or Stephanie immediately. One or more of them is available at each of our conventions and they can be reached through registration or by the convention MC/Host. Issues of this importance should not be handled by our volunteers, as great as they are.

By attending Creation events you agree to allow your image to be used on our website and in news documentaries or stories, either filmed by Creation Entertainment or other entities.

All ticket prices are subject to change, please order as early as possible.

In the unlikely event of a cancellation of the convention, or a date change, Creation Entertainment is not responsible for refunding airfare or any other costs other than the payments made directly to Creation Entertainment for ticketing. Also in the unlikely event, due to weather, transit issues or last minute illness or other reason given by celebrity, an advertised guest does not make their appearance at the convention, Creation Entertainment is not responsible for any refunds other than separate tickets specific to the guest autograph tickets or photo op tickets. In the extremely rare chance that a guest does not finish his or her autographs or photo ops (which has only happened in a hand full of cases over 40 plus years, always due to something out of our control) Creation Entertainment will only be responsible for the refund of the separate autograph or photo op ticket.

In the extremely rare case (which has never happened before) our computer systems may accept more tickets than we have allotted for, we would refund ticket money to the last several people (in order) who did manage to get a confirmation or ticket. As we've said it has never happened, but we want to have a fair scenario in place it if does occur.

Flashes occur from phone and cameras often during stage presentations. If you are sensitive to such lighting please be advised to take the necessary precautions.
