Professional Registration Is Now Open!
Please review the following information regarding NYCC Professional tickets carefully
NYCC welcomes professionals across the full spectrum of pop culture industries and is happy to provide a Professional ticket to approved artists, buyers, creators, editors, educators, librarians, licensors, producers, publishers, tastemakers, retailers, and writers currently working or retired from comics and popular arts. Due to the volume of applications, we cannot provide Professional tickets to support staff, such as administrative staff, facilities, IT, operations and others who are not directly involved in the creative process. All employees must apply and will be evaluated on an individual basis.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to an overwhelming amount of applications, NYCC Professional tickets are limited and are not guaranteed for all who apply. Receiving a Professional ticket in the past does not guarantee you will be approved this year.
Your Professional ticket will not get you:
- Early access into the building, special access or guaranteed seating
The ability to cut lines
Free access into any events requiring an additional ticket
Access to exhibitor exclusive drawings
PLEASE NOTE: To enter exhibitor exclusive drawings you will need a fan ticket. You will have access to panel drawings.
The Professional Application will be live until Monday, September 25, 2023 at 5:00 PM ET.
Professional Badge Registration will be open until Saturday, October 1, 2023 at 11:59 PM ET
Professionals who submit by June 4, 2023 will hear back about the status of their application before the Fan Verification Presale and applicants who apply before June 14, 2023 will hear back about their application before the General Onsale.
Once the NYCC Professional registration period has closed, no late applications will be accepted, due to volume of applicants and limited number of Professional tickets available.
Application Process
There will be NO onsite Professional registration. Should you wish to attend as a professional ticket holder, you MUST apply online and complete the full application by Monday, September 25th. Note: If your application is approved, you must purchase your Professional ticket by Saturday, October, 1. Should you not receive the status of your application by September 27, 2023, NYCC Professional Email Inbox.
