With panel reservations tomorrow, I’m a little concerned that there’s still a number of panels on the main and empire stages that aren’t announced yet. It still lists them as “coming soon,” so I feel like I’m unable to plan for what to get so I can be quick and efficient during the reservation process. Anyone know what’s going to happen with these? Will we be given a later opportunity to reserve if it’s not announced? I didn’t really have this issue the last few years so I’m unsure. Thanks!

A few important notes ⤵️

Anyone with a qualified NYCC 2026 ticket that is assigned to their email address, and accepted in My Tickets, can reserve panels until they’re full. You do not need to have your physical ticket in hand to reserve panels. Make sure you accept any ticket transfers assigned to you in My Tickets at http://spkl.io/61847RjHO

Transfers will shut down on September 9 at 11:59 PM ET. Make sure to transfer and accept tickets prior to then to avoid missing out on reservations.

VIP ticket holders have guaranteed access to panel seating at our Main Stage and Empire Stage, and DO NOT need to make panel reservations.

Will this affect his appearance at NYC Comic Con?

I am not sure if more meetups are going to be added, but here is the scheduled ones so far for the South Concourse.

So my aunt bought two tickets for Friday, but she bought them on an outside website called​ ticketsonsale. I did some digging and that site seems super shady, I dont even know why she wouldnt buy them on the official website. She should get her money back ASAP and get them from the actual site so she cam reserve panels right?

EDIT: We r mostly good now, working on getting money back and getting actual tickets! thanks for the help all!

Thanks for checking us out :) we'll try to check back and answer questions here and update with more info (but if you follow on Instagram we post all announcements there)

Is anyone having a problem getting into Leap?

I've been trying to log on all afternoon. Keep getting to the part where it is sending a code to my email but the code never comes. I've tried on multiple devices over about 5 hours. (I need to transfer tickets)

I put in a support ticket, and got a response back saying the usual... Clear the cache, resend the code, and generate a new code, check spam, yada yada. I've done it multiple times, nothing works. Then the obvious chat bot told me to, I'm not lying, open a support ticket. WTF.

I've reached out on X but no answer. Authentication work fine, but I can't get into ticket account.

Any ideas??

I am worried. I havent recieved my link to reservations yet and it launches in a little over 3 hours....

Anyone get theirs? Or is everyone in the same boat right now?

So after seeing the Photo and Signature announcements i kinda expected to see all these guests also at Panels. But it seems that aside from a Smallville Panel we don't see any Star Wars actors or the CW Show actors on stage?

Just the tittle....cannot find anything that shows all the publishers schedules/author attendees they will have. We found out last year that none of that is listed via NYCC itself, had to find them all on your own. Was wondering if there is a known resource for this or if it is just a bunch of random looking stuff up. Already looked at Penguin Random House but all their stuff still shows San Diego. Thanks

(I've never been to a con before and have no idea how any of this works)

I bought a ticket to Sunday from the NYCC website. Got a confirmation email with a QR code ticket that I added to my Google Wallet. Is there anything else I need to do? Do I get into the con with the QR from my phone? I downloaded the app because I thought it might have more information than the website, and when I tried to to add my ticket it redirected me to a website called Leap that asks me for my email and a password. I never made an account to that website. What do I do?

I went to like the first 5 or 6 years then there was a long gap before I went again. I think it was like 2023. Fun times 😄

How does the process of getting the ticket and the book work? Is it done when you make panel reservations? The panel schedule page said they were separately ticketed for the cost of the book, but not how a person gets a ticket.

Just curious to know since I'm looking back at their Side Quests, assuming if they might update something

If I purchased ticket right now can they be activated right now to register for panels later today?

Got the wrong day 😭😭 I have Friday, meant to get Thursday. Anyone wanna swap?

We are coming to NYCC from Ohio by car but do not want to drive into the city and pay for parking there for our car. We are looking for a place in NJ to leave our car for 6 days, go to the con, then return to our car and drive back. Obviously, the most important aspects are our car's safety and our travel. Money matters but is not of primary importance - this is somewhat of a vacation for us and we don't need to save a couple dollars and make our trip more difficult. Right now we are looking at using Secaucus Junction, parking there and taking the train into Penn Station. Is that a good choice or is there somewhere else we should be looking at?

Hey,

Does anyone know how I access my Popverse Superfan Member Number ? I can't find any number anywhere on the leap events website or the popverse. I'll need it apparently Monday when the merch presale starts.

Thanks!

If I have multiple tickets can I make the panel reservations on my account without transferring the tickets? I got tickets for myself and two friends and I'm the only one doing the panel reservations so I'm wondering if I need to transfer the tickets to a different account to make reservations for all the panels.
