Welcome to the 25th Dragon*Con!
How time flies. Not only are we here again at another fun filled Dragon*Con but it is our 25th year. It seems like only yesterday that we had our first Dragon*Con with guests of honor Richard Garriott, Michael Moorcock, and Gary Gygax. In fact it was not yesterday, but October of 1987. This year we have more hotels, more tracks, more space, more fans and more fun than ever. The more hotels give us more space. More space means more programming, and more programming means more entertainment and more fans and fun. While for many of you, Dragon*Con starts on Wednesday or Thursday when you arrive, our programming officially begins at 10:00 am on Friday Morning.
We once again have arranged quite the line up for you. I want to remind all of you to please respect the privacy of our guests and stars. Allow them to enjoy their Dragon*Con experience too! They will be available for autographs in the Walk of Fame, or in the autograph area but not on the convention floor or in hotel restaurants.
Speaking of the charity, we have co-branded a pin with Hard Rock Café. These pins are limited to 1000 and can be found for sale at a table on the first floor of the Sheraton or at the Atlanta Hard Rock Café on the corner of Peachtree St. and Andrew Young International Blvd. Two dollars from the sale of each pin set will go to the Inclusion project.
Some of our stars ask not to be photographed unless they are properly posed. We ask that you not take photos of the guests while they are autographing. Please ask the stars or their agents what their photo policy is and adhere to it.
Saturday, September 3, 7:30 pm–11:00 pm, will be Dragon*Con night at the Georgia Aquarium. The aquarium is set up to sell discounted tickets, in the Sheraton, outside of Registration.
This has been a year of technological advances for Dragon*Con. I am sure that over 20,000 of you have seen the scanners we used in pre-registration. No more alphabetical lines. Bring your post card, scan it, and go. We also have had an app built for the iPhone/iPod, Droid, and Blackberry. This will allow us to keep you updated with the latest information changes throughout the show. All of the information that you are used to finding in our pocket program will be available on your smart phone. We will not be using the app for promotional announcements. This year’s charity is the National Inclusion Project. They will be manning a table in the Sheraton to accept your tax deductable donations. Plan on attending the charity auction Sunday, in the Hyatt. Your purchases will make a difference for disadvantaged kids.
Because everyone cannot always get into all of the most popular events, we are going to live broadcast some of the events from the Centennial Ballroom on Dragon*Con TV. We will also be videotaping some of the events in the Atrium Ballroom for later broadcast on Dragon*Con television. Please see the schedule in this pocket program or the app on your smart phone for details. On behalf of our 1800 member volunteer staff, we wish you a wonderful Dragon*Con experience. Thanks for making us part of your Labor Day weekend.

Vital Information IMPORTANT NOTES Don’t Forget Your Badge!
To ensure the safety of all of our attendees, there will be times that the hotels will require you to have your badge in order to enter the hotel. Alternatively, a valid hotel key (to the hotel you are trying to enter) may be used.
Large Room Capacity Policy
All event and program rooms have limited capacity as set by the Fire Marshal. Even though your badge is needed to get into all events, it does not guarantee you access to any event if the room has reached its capacity. Additionally, all large ballrooms will be cleared in between panels.
Line Formation Policy
Lines for ballroom events will not be allowed to form more than one hour prior to the event, or until the line for the current event has completely entered the ballroom. Each ballroom will have signage marking the location where the line may start to form. Those in line will not be allowed to enter the ballroom until the previous panel has been completely cleared.
Weapons Policy
All weapons must be non-working and peace bound. No functioning projectile weapons, including water pistols, silly-string guns, and pingpong pistols. Bladed weapons must be cased or sheathed at all times. Please check with Security in Room M101 on the Marquis Level of the Marriott Marquis if you need clarification on this policy, or if you are unsure about the status of your props.
Gaming Guidebook
We have taken all of the Tournament Gaming information and moved it into its own book! Copies of the Guidebook are available at Gaming Registration in the Galleria Ballroom at the Hilton Atlanta.

D*CTV: Live Broadcasts
