If Vendor badges are given to friends or family to attend, the badges may be revoked and approval for future shows will be denied. All approved vendors will receive a final questionnaire.

No. Badges are for individual use and are non-transferable.

If you have staff that needs access for only one day or other specific needs, please contact us for necessary accommodations.
We would be happy to consider any preferences that you have for general locations, but we cannot guarantee any vendor-specific booth spaces at the show. The Washington State Summer Con factors many things when building the layout for the show. Factors for placement that are considered include booth contents, sponsorship, vendor professionalism, and returning vendor status. Factors that are considered include the visual appeal of the booth, previous gracious or abrasive behavior at the show or leading up to the show to Summer Con staff, and complaints from surrounding Vendors. Vendors will be placed according to the Vendor team and all decisions are final.
Vendors and Exhibitors will not be able to access their booth space from 9 pm on Friday (June 23rd) until 7 am Saturday (June 24th) AND from 7 pm on Saturday (June 24th) until 8 am on Sunday (June 25th). Security will have all buildings locked down and will be emptied for the safety and security of everyone’s personal property.

Here is a link to our most current safety protocols: http://54.236.55.61/show-safety/
We do not anticipate adding additional requirements than are currently imposed and required by the Governor and the local department of health. Currently, we are not required to check for vaccination status, masks are no longer required for indoor and outdoor spaces, and we expect that will continue through our show in June. We support anyone that would like to wear a mask for their own personal safety or precaution.
