Since this is a FREE EVENT, you do not keep your same seats you had during the day as the first few rows are removed. There will be seats in the back if you prefer to sit. If you have a VIP pass or special needs, please come to the front of the line.
NOTE: If you choose to stand in line early to be up front, you may only hold one additional place until the doors open. Once the doors open and if your companion is not there, there is no guarantee there will be room left in the front. Although these are FREE events and you do not need a convention pass to attend, please be aware that there is still a limited capacity at each venue. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis and space may be filled to capacity. If there are COVID-19-related restrictions at the time of the convention, we will not be removing seats. Should we need to keep seats in place, seating will open and on a first come, first served basis.

Our Saturday night LIVE Celebration Concert has always been a highlight for our fellow TVD/Originals fans! Join Chase and house band MERCY MODE plus special guests, including Michael Malarkey, for some great live entertainment! All guest participants are tentative until show time.  

The concert is complimentary for GOLD, SILVER and COPPER WEEKEND patrons -- and for all others, a la carte tickets are only $35!  

Read more about the concert policies here!

Note: Convention admission passes are not required to purchase a concert ticket or attend the concert, but the concert is an evening event ONLY and the ticket does NOT include an admission pass for daytime programming.
This event is complimentary for Gold, Silver and Copper Weekend Patrons but the first rows will be removed for standing so weekend pass holders do NOT keep their daytime reserved seats for this event. There will be room to sit in the back for those that prefer to, and the show is still quite visible and enjoyable. However, should COVID protocols still be in place at the time of this event, seats will not be removed and package ticket holders may keep their same seats.

Giving Gifts to Celebrities
We know that many fans like to give gifts to our celebrity guests and we feel this is a lovely gesture. However, it's impossible to accommodate the large amounts of gifts and we do not have an adequate system to accept them at the many different venues. Please refrain from bringing gifts to the convention. 

Instead, we are offering the following addresses for fans to send gifts to the celebrities:
Attn: Ian Somerhalder or Paul Wesley
