Don't forget to pack these essentials!
Comfortable shoes and clothing
You’ll be doing a lot of walking! Keep in mind that summer in Baltimore is hot and humid.
Your pre-registration information
If you choose to pre-register for the convention, don’t forget to bring your receipt with confirmation numbers so you can pick up your badge when you get to the con.
Cosplay
Don’t forget any important accessories!
Personal hygiene products, including soap and shampoo
The hotel samples won’t be enough for you and all your friends.
Cash
Many booths in the Dealer’s Room won’t be able to take credit cards, and ATMs around the convention center may run out quickly.
Camera & charger
You’ll probably want to take pictures of all the fantastic cosplay!
Phone & charger
It’s important to be able to contact your friends and roommates if you get separated or need a room key.
Water
Carry a water bottle around with you during the day to avoid becoming dehydrated or overheated in the hot summer weather.
Sleeping Bag
Unless you booked your hotel way in advance, it's very likely you'll be sharing a room with a group. Bring a sleeping bag to ensure that you'll have somewhere comfy to crash at the end of the day.
