MEET & GREET HALL

Most meet & greets have been assigned ahead of time through Meet & Greet Matchmaking, which took place between April and May. The only way you are guaranteed entry to the scheduled sessions in the Meet & Greet Hall is if you entered matchmaking. If you didn’t enter matchmaking, check out the “Standby Meet & Greets” section of this page to see how you can still get a chance to meet Featured Creators.

When you picked up your credentials at Registration, you received your RFID wristband which holds all of the meet & greets that you were selected for during matchmaking. Damaged or defaced

You can line up in Hall D for each session

ONE HOUR BEFORE the scheduled start time through A HALF HOUR AFTER the scheduled start time. If you show up earlier, security will tell you to go explore the amazing Expo Hall and come back later. If you show up late… well, just don’t show up late.

Once inside the hall, there will be signs to remind you who will be in each area. Head to the correct queue line as indicated on the meet & greet schedule you received during matchmaking and your wristband will be scanned to make sure you are in the right place. Once you are scanned in and confirmed, you are good to go! Don’t forget to say hello to the person next to you in line — chances are you have a lot in common!

Some creators are doing several sessions during VidCon, but you will only be allowed to attend the session indicated on your matchmaking schedule. You will not be able to switch your meet & greet time.

Please check the signage and listen to staff instructions to help speed the process along. Your session type(s) are indicated on your schedule from the matchmaking platform. 1

PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHS:

These sessions will feature a professional photographer that will snap a picture. Sorry, no selfies at this type of session! Some creators may allow autographs — please listen to security staff for further instructions. Order holders will receive emails containing links to access meet & greet photos for each of the attendees on their order who had a Pro Photo session. If someone else purchased your ticket, make sure they know to send you this email when they receive it! Don’t worry if you’re not seeing your photos right away. Pictures can take a few days to appear on the website.

2 SELFIES AND AUTOGRAPHS:

Pretty self-explanatory!

Please respect a limit of one selfie and/or one item signed.

Bag Check Information

Your bags are permitted in the Meet & Greet Hall but will be subject to search. Alcohol, drugs, weapons, and items that can be mistaken as weapons are expressly prohibited, as per our Code of Conduct. If you bring a gift for a Featured Creator, please leave it unwrapped and visible, and please do not bring gifts of food unless they’re factory sealed. Use your best judgment regarding what kinds of things you bring to give to a Featured Creator — most of them travel to get to VidCon and large gifts may be tricky for them to take home.

MEET & GREET HEALTH & SAFETY

Please note that Featured Creators have been given the ability to dictate any COVID-19 safety protocols that they would like in order to ensure their comfort. Please be sure to listen to directions from staff and security in the Meet & Greet Hall, and please make note of any signage. Whether gifts will be accepted is up to the discretion of each individual creator.
