Do you have discount badges for children?

Children under the age of 7 do not require a badge. Child badges are discounted from the adult badges. Children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a supervisory adult who also purchases a badge at the adult price. (max 2 children per adult). Badges must be purchased at the same time to get the discount for the child, and single day badges for children at the door are the same price as adults, there is no discount for single day registration for children.
Children under the age of 7 are admitted to Dokidokon free with the purchase of an adult weekend registration. Children under the age of 7 do not need to buy a badge or register. If your child is under the age of 16 they must be with you at all times. Dokidokon is not your child's babysitter.

Can I get a refund on my badge?

We understand situations come up where you may be unable to attend Dokidokon, but have already secured your badge with our pre-reg rate. We do our very best to honor refunds and to initiate those in a timely fashion, however please note that we will be unable to issue any refunds during the month of Dokidokon (July). We are sorry you cannot attend, but we will not issue a refund 30 days prior to the convention. We hope you understand and will try to attend next year!

Do you have discount badges for teachers, military, or students?

At this time Dokidokon does not have discounted badges for teachers, students, or military.

You may also show up at the event and register for a single day pass, but we reccomend registering online the week of when that goes live so you can skip waiting in line longer.

How do I pick up my badge?

If you pre-register online you'll be sent an email confirmation of your badge(s). All badges must be picked up at the convention unless you purchased the VIP badge before June 10th, in which case your badge will be mailed to the address you provided. You have three options for picking up your badge at the convention;

1. Print off the email confirmation of your badges and when you arrive at the convention get in the Pre-Registered line. Show the print off confirmation to the staff member and they will give you your badge.
2. Take your mobiel device and download the email confirmation (or take a screenshot of it) and show it to the staff member at the Pre-registered table.
3. Forgot to print off the confirmation and don't have good cell service? No problem! Bring your Goverment issued ID to confirm your identity when picking up your badge. Simply show the official staff member at the Pre-registered table your ID and they will look up your badge info.

Can I let someone else pick up my badge?

In short, no. The reason we check for both a confirmation or ID is to make sure we can account for everyone who is attending. Even if you are arriving at a later time we still need to have you pick up your badge, not your friend. The information collected when you register is for your safety while attending, so by checking in and picking up your badge we are not only able to verify you are here, but make sure the information provided is correct in case of an emergency.

Can I give my badge to a friend?

We only accept badge transfers up until July 1st. In order to transfer your badge to a friend you will need to do the following;

1. Contact Ari at operations@dokidokon.org and make the subject be 'Badge Transfer'.
2. Provide the following information and wait for a response from Ari to confirm the transfer.
