The Signing Hall
Our on-site ticketing system will help you visit as many authors as you’d like and meet new-to-you authors that you may not have discovered yet!
Here’s a bit more information on how the signing hall, queues, and ticketing system will work at Romance Con. The signing hall will use custom printed raffle-style tickets for each author.
Join the Queue
The Signing Hall will open at 2 PM on Friday and Saturday
Premium Pass holders will have a priority queue to enter the signing hall first.
Visit authors to join their queues and get their signatures
Join one line at a time, or pick up ticket for as many authors as you'd like.
When a queue fills up, we will begin to issue tickets ¹
Each ticket will have an assigned number so you will know when to return.
Once You Have an Author Ticket
We will welcome people back in number groups
Groups will be announced over the PA system, in the event app, and on our website.
Once your number has been called, you may return at any time for your signing ²
If we don't make it to your number on Friday, we will pick up where we left on on Saturday
You don't need a new author ticket
Some authors may decide to limit the number of of items that can be signed per ticket.
Limits will be made available prior to the event so you can plan accordingly.
Having an author ticket does not guarantee you a signing
We’ll do our very best to help authors get through all their tickets but we cannot guarantee that we will make it to everyone.
If you have a Premium Pass
Your Premium Pass allows you to pre-reserve up to three author tickets.
Premium Pass holders will receive an email from our team with instructions on how to pre-reserve your three choices. When you check in at Romance Con to pick up your badge and lanyard, we’ll give you those three tickets so you already have them before the signing hall opens later that day.
​
Once the signing hall opens, you’ll be able to enter first as part of your priority entrance queue perk, and you can either use your pre-reserved tickets immediately or visit other authors and use your pre-reserved tickets later.

Some authors may not need to use tickets for their lines. Whether or not an author’s queue is using wristbands will depend on how many people are in their queueing area. If you’re not sure if you need a ticket for a line, check with a Romance Con staff member. We’re the ones wearing red STAFF lanyards.

For example: If your number is called for Author B while waiting in Author A’s line, no need to rush! Once your number has been called, you may return at any time for your signing, even if we’ve called even more numbers for Author B.
