Registration Policies

(Last Updated 5/3/2026)

Purchasing and Refunds

  • LVFC Registration is 21+. Anyone under 21 cannot receive a badge/wristband.
  • Registration does not accept cash or card at-con. All registration must be paid for online via ConCat.
  • Refunds are allowed any time, provided a badge has not been picked up.

Transferability

  • Physical badges are non-transferable after pickup.
  • Badges which have not been picked up may be transferred to someone else in ConCat.

Attendance Pickup

  • All attendees must show government-issued photo ID to pick up their registration.
  • Badges/wristbands must be worn at all times when accessing convention space.
  • Physical badges/wristbands are non-transferable.
  • Badges/wristbands are property of the convention until its conclusion and must be turned over at staff’s request.

Badge Reprints

  • The first reprint for a lost badge is $5. After that, it is full price.
  • Reprints are done at registration and must be noted by Registration Lead.

Wristband Replacements

  • LVFC 21+ Wristbands cannot be replaced and are meant for the whole weekend. They may only be replaced if the original is turned into security (e.g. a wristband has become too tight).

Post-Con

  • Any registrations which are not picked up are fully refundable until 30 days after the con.
  • After 30 days, any unclaimed registration becomes a rollover credit for the following year. Rollovers are applied as vouchers for the following year, based on value at time of purchase (e.g. if a badge is purchased at $99, your rollover will cover $99 even if registration increases to $100).
  • If a rolled over badge is not picked up, it will roll over again. We will reach out to let you know you have a roll over and ask if you wish to donate it. At this time, rollovers are indefinite.

Vouchers

  • Unused registration vouchers (e.g. from bundled vouchers, companion passes) cannot be refunded, but they can be used indefinitely. In the event a voucher expires, please contact [email protected] to have it reinstated.
  • Vouchers may be transferred to a person of choice.
  • Unused benefits such as GOH Alumnus, contractor comps, etc. do not count as vouchers and do not rollover year to year.

Hotel Deposits

  • Hotel deposits retained due to late cancellation are converted into credit which may be used within SNAE’s family of events and products, e.g. on registration and hotel for LVFC, GROWL and other SNAE events. To use credit for Con Store items, please contact [email protected].
