Re: Fan Expo Canada 2012

Should order my tickets in advance? Think they might sell put on site?

this is going to sound ridiculous since I am in Vancouver but we had ours already, I bought mine online to be safe, for those who didn't there was a 3-4 hour line up just to purchase the tickets. I was scared because I thought that was the line to get in, So i asked someone and they said nope you can walk right in, if you were scared because of that huge line up that's just the people who didn't pay in advance.

Not only that but once inside there was a line to take your tickets. I don't see the downside of buying them in advance. I assume the one you guys are having will be way more popular

When you buy tickets online you have to exchange the print out for a pass/wristband. These lines are very long on the first day (which is why my wife and I arrive Thursday night and attend Friday morning).

You can buy tickets onsite and on the first day, the line is usually a little shorter than the advanced pickup line but you'll have to wait in line with the advance ticket holders after anyways (so be prepared to wait in line).

Advanced tickets get you in early on Thursday, but you'll end up waiting in line so I'd recommend arriving at at least two hours before the early admittance of 2pm. If you pick up your tickets Friday morning you'll be in line probably 5 minutes at most.
