Celebration Chicago 2019 - April 11-15

[Boba Ben]

Weren't VIP tickets $700 last time? Seems like a lot of scratch to get in a half hour early.

To me, the biggest perk is reserved seating at the main panels. I only got to see one panel last time because I refuse to spend the night in the convention center and also will not get up at the crack of dawn to get a wristband. I really hope it won't be like that again or this will have to be my last Celebration.

I got lucky for everything but the huge panels... so seeing smaller ones (but still major) like Mark Hamill were doable by doing "standby". I got into quite a few things that were unavailable by the time we got into the convention center. That didn't happen in Anaheim as you could only queue up for the panels... so you either stood in line for an hour or so beforehand, or you were out of luck.

Standby for sure got me into quite a few panels!

 

[FLOSI]

I'm not spending 700+ to see a lame trailer that I'll see an hour later and I'm not standing in a long ass line for hours on end.

How much was it for just one day admission? Highly doubtful I can do all five days.

They were $65 each day or $75 for Saturday.

That's not too bad. Will have to wait and see what the prices are.

 

[galactiboy]

$215 for the whole shebang, $75 per day and $850 for Jedi

 

[Darth Waller]

$215 for a 5-day. Does that come with lube? Ouch.

 

[galactiboy]

No, but when has that ever mattered to you?

You know I always bring the lube Waller!

$75 is not that bad for one day. $850 is just craziness. Just to ask....has ReedPop always done SWC? I've never been to one.

I believe they'd done all the ones I've gone to (CV through the most recent one).

Okay. Another question...am I safe to wait and buy my one day tickets (Friday) or should I just get them on Tuesday?

In the past, they haven't sold out until a few months before show.

 

[Khev]

Very curious to see which celebrities will be attending this one.

 

[furystorm]

fury will be there....

Is that Jar Jar’s annoying brother?
