Professional Registration

NYCC welcomes professionals across the full spectrum of the pop culture industries and is happy to provide a Professional Pass to artists, buyers, creators, editors, educators, librarians, licensors, producers, publishers, retailers, and writers. Professional Passes are good for entry to NYCC’s Professional-Only Hours (10 AM to 1 PM) on Friday, October 8 as well as specially priced tickets to the show. NYCC Professional Passes also include admission to the New York Anime Festival.
