What is a special edition?

A “special edition” is a bigger event, with more guests than a classic fanmeet, but also more visitors.

Visitors will be able to meet their favorite stars, attend question and answer panels between fans and actors, participate in signing sessions, and even have their picture taken with their favorite actor. It is also possible to meet artists, creators, illustrators, authors and other speakers always in line with the theme of the event.

Your presence is not required all day long, you will just have to show up when you want throughout the day in order to do the extras you want and attend the conferences that interest you according to the schedule set up and available on our website once all the guests are announced. The special editions leave you free to move around throughout the day since you can arrive and leave when you want, and you can enter and leave the event as many times as you want.

Prepare your visit

How to participate?

The Pass is what allows you to have access to the event. To participate it is imperative to have purchased in advance your Pass on our online ticketing service or by transfer by sending an e-mail to contact@people-conv.com. The only official ticketing system is the one hosted on the website of our partner.

An extra, whatever it is, does NOT give access to the event. If you buy a photo op, autograph or panel without a pass, you will not be able to use them since the pass is what gives you access to these activities.

If the show is not sold out, it is possible to buy your access pass directly on site (while stocks last).

Please note that the Pass is not exchangeable, modifiable or refundable except in case of cancellation of the event by us. Resale is forbidden unless otherwise stated by us. If you are caught reselling on the internet, your tickets will be cancelled without refund as this would violate our Terms and Conditions.

What are the different types of pass?

On the special editions, you will find 4 types of passes:
1-day General Pass
2-day General Pass
1-day Prime Pass
2-day Prime Pass

The price of the passes varies according to the costs involved.

Prime Passes are not always available. Depending on the event, only a General Pass may be available.

A General Pass gives you access to the event for one or two days. Please note that unlike the classic events, the General Pass does not include the panels!

The Prime Pass, on the other hand, includes one or two days of access to the event, and includes the panels of the silver guests. It also includes the Fast line ticket, which allows you to have a dedicated line and thus have less waiting at the extras.

All passes include access to the animation stage throughout the event and sometimes even to the live broadcast of the panels on the big screen. You will be able to enjoy the speakers, cosplay contests and other animations regardless of your pass type.

What is a Fast Line ticket?

A Fast Line ticket is a ticket that gives you access to a dedicated line and therefore allows you to go faster to the extras. Please note that this ticket does not give you access to the panels or to the entrance of the event, only to the extras like photo ops, autographs, selfies…

Note: It is possible that in some cases the Fast Line ticket can be used on the panels, especially when the placement is not possible on the ticket office. When this is the case, everything is indicated on the event page.

Depending on the event, Fast Line – One Shot tickets may be available. These tickets allow you to use the ticket on ONE activity. This ticket is usually less expensive.

Who are the guests and when will you announce them?

We announce the guests gradually, as soon as we receive the signed contracts. We cannot reveal the names of the actors or actresses we are in contact with before the contracts are signed for confidentiality reasons. To follow the announcements, follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram!

Silver, Gold and Platinium guests

Silver guest

This is an actor or actress whose panels are included in the Prime Passes. Usually, they are more secondary actors or are newcomers to the series.

Gold and Platinium guests

These are additional actors or actresses who are not included in the passes but whose panels are available for purchase as extras (regardless of your pass type). In general, they are either very popular guests and/or main cast actors. Platinum guests are always the most anticipated guests by the majority of the fans.

My favourite guest has cancelled, what can I do?

Unfortunately, this can happen, as the actor or actress may have last minute professional obligations. It is beyond our control, the entrance pass cannot be refunded, but we will try to replace the guest by another guest of equivalent importance if the conditions allow it. Autograph tickets, photo ops, panels or any other extras you purchased with the guest will be automatically refunded.

What are the extras?

To access the Extras, you must have purchased a Pass. The different types of extras are:
– Autographs
– Photo ops
– Selfies at the table
– Panels

Unlike traditional events, the number of photo’op taken by our professional photographers is extremely limited.

Other exceptional extras can be added depending on the event. In this case, everything is explained on the page of the show you are interested in.

Taking personal photos is strictly forbidden during the extras presented here, under penalty of being banned from the show. The same applies to videos, which are strictly forbidden.

How many signatures can I get with one autograph ticket?

Autographs are limited to one signature per ticket. You can bring a support from home. Please note that the agents may refuse some media, especially if they are unofficial merchandise. We will sell on the spot supports validated by the agents if you wish it.

Can I take a picture with a friend in addition to the actor?

If you want to take a picture with a friend, there are two possibilities. Either you want to take a photo with ONLY ONE actor, and therefore you must each have a photo ticket. Or it is a duo, trio or group photo (with several actors) and then, you will be able to share a single ticket.

To summarize: one actor = one ticket per person, two or more actors = one ticket for two.

Can my friend or relative accompany me to do my extra even if they don’t have a ticket?

Sorry, but in order to ensure the safety of everyone, we do not allow companions in the queue. Only people with a ticket will be allowed to enter the line.

Are there any prohibited objects in the event?

Please note that some objects are totally forbidden in the event, please take note of them.

When does the box office close?

The ticketing close at the end of the event.

I would like to be placed with my friend, is this possible?

The placement during the panels is now done when you buy your panel ticket. You can choose your placement on the ticketing system and thus organize yourself with your friend to be placed together.

Can I come to the event if I am a minor?

You can come as a minor, however, you will have to present yourself at the pass desk with a parental authorisation and a copy of the identity card of the person who filled it in. Only a parent or legal guardian can complete this document. Minors under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

Please note: only the parental authorisation on official People Convention paper will be accepted. You can find it here.

The entrance pass is free for children up to 5 years old, provided that the child sits on the parent’s lap.

For more information, please send an email to contact@people-conv.com.

Please note: We do not offer rates for parents accompanying their children to the event.

Do you offer special facilities for people with reduced mobility?

We want every participant to be able to enjoy the event. To ensure an optimal experience, contact us as soon as possible after purchasing your pass to explain your needs (contact@people-conv.com). You will be allocated a privileged place, as well as quick access to extras (photo op, autographs…) to limit your waiting time.

Will there be food services on site?

We always do our best to ensure that food stands are available at the event. If this is not the case, we will notify you in the instruction email that will be sent to you the week before the event and we will recommend addresses close to the event to eat.

Can I bring my own food?

Yes, you may. However, we ask you not to leave your waste lying around and to use the garbage cans provided for this purpose.

Where can I find the event schedule?

The schedule is updated each time it is announced and is available on the page of the event that interests you! It will also be available on site during the event. Please note that the schedule is always indicative and may be subject to change until the last moment for organisational reasons.

I am a creator, illustrator or author, can I rent a stand at one of your fairs?

Of course you can! We invite you to contact us at contact@people-conv.com to present your activity. Please note that we have a limited number of spaces available and therefore make a selection among the applications.

The day

Where do your events take place?

To find out where one of our events takes place, please visit the event description page on our website.

Is there a cloakroom where I can leave my coat and/or suitcase?

We do not usually offer a checkroom service on site, so we recommend that you do not bring too much luggage. We cannot be held responsible for any loss or theft of personal belongings.

Moreover, in the framework of the vigipirate plan, the majority of the places where our events take place do not allow visitors to bring suitcases. We therefore invite you, as far as possible, to store your luggage in a luggage storage service, in your hotel room or in your vehicle for the duration of the event.

What is the procedure for the registration and going to the extras?

Contrary to traditional trade shows, your registration will be much faster. All you have to do is present your ticket in printed or digital form (on a smartphone) and we will give you a wristband that you will have to keep for the duration of the event. This wristband will allow you to enter and leave the event. Identity checks may be carried out.

Concerning the extras, you will have to keep your tickets and present them to us when you come.

I have lost my extra, what should I do?

All tickets purchased are your responsibility, so we cannot be held responsible for any theft or loss of an extra before or on the day of the event. We cannot replace any lost extras.

My ticket is already scanned, what should I do?

We cannot be held responsible if your ticket is already scanned. If this is the case, the ticket has already been presented to us and we have no recourse. Be vigilant and never share your tickets with a QR Code visible on the internet!

Can I give gifts to actors?

Unless there is a specific contraindication for an event, you can give gifts to your favorite actor or actress during the autograph or selfie sessions only. You must have an autograph ticket or a selfie ticket. You can give as many gifts as you want, but give preference to gifts that are not too bulky, remember that the actors have to travel afterwards! Also avoid anything food related.
