I purchased tickets, now what?
That’s It! Start making plans and reservations!
If you chose not to pay for shipping - you will pick up your physical ticket during registration at the convention!
NOTE: Your PayPal receipt is your proof of purchase and confirmation that we received your payment!
What does my ticket cover?
Right now, everything related to the convention. Additional activities (such as Escape IT, shows, and gambling funds) are not included.
Will Stephen King be there?????
We have asked and we know he is aware of KingCon. We do NOT, however, expect him to attend. I know we would all love for him to be there - maybe next time? What about Joe, Owen, or Tabitha? Same answer: we have asked.
Will there be cosplay?
Yes, with prizes! Stay tuned for more on this!
NOTE: No cosplay props (canes, axes, weapons, etc.) will be permitted at the con for everyone's safety.
Masks of any form are not permitted on the casino floor.
Does the hotel offer a group rate?
Unfortunately, since this is our first con, we were unable to secure a group rate. We hope that will change next time given our success.
Will there be swag or goodies for attendees?
YES!! We will have swag bags for ALL ticket holders. If you attend in person, you will receive your bag at the time of registration. If you cannot attend, you can pay to have your swag bag mailed to you.
NOTE: Swag bags will be mailed after the Con concludes. We do not have an estimate on when that will be yet.
We will provide more information on shipping costs and address collection after the Con - thanks!
Can I bring books or prints to have signed by artists and/or authors in attendance?
Yes, please do! We are still working to secure some very special guests and, while we cannot guarantee autographs will be provided, it’s better to have one in your room just in case!
Will there be any events like Comic-Con Hall H that we have to wait in line to see? Will we have access to it all?
Access to all, YES. We are inclusive in the respect that EVERY attendee will have the opportunity to see all speakers, guests, and anyone that has come to be a part of this event. We are designing the meeting space to accommodate anyone who wants to be at the con.
Will there be surprises?
Maaaaaayyyybeee....
Do I need to bring cash to the convention?
KingCon will be 100% cashless (credit & debit card only) for all of our planned transactions.
This includes but is not limited to the following:
- Merchandise
- "Cash" Bar (called this only because its NOT free!)
- Vendors (some may accept cash & credit)
There are many ways to spend cash in Atlantic City!
What time should we try to arrive?
Keep an eye on our schedule for updates!
Will there be another KingCon if I am unable to attend in 2024?
It is our hope that KingCon will become a biennial event to celebrate the great Stephen King!

King Con Attire
Hello KingCon attendees! As requested previously, please do not wear any attire which identifies your political affiliation or views. KingCon should be a much needed, all-too-brief, respite from politics.
If you have questions or would like to discuss, please reach out to any KingCon committee member.
Thank you all for helping make KingCon a celebration of shared passions. We can’t wait to meet you!
