After you have picked up your badge at registration, you will need to stop by the panelist check-in desk. You will only need to do so once over the course of the weekend. This must be done at least 30 minutes prior to your first panel, but we encourage you to do it as soon as possible. It makes everything run smoother for us, and lets you get it out of the way so you can enjoy the convention. After that, please arrive at the panel room at least 10 minutes prior to your panel, to check in with our staff there.
