AUTOGRAPH LOTTERY FAQs

Yes you can! The physical badge is not required to enter. More information on how to enter can be found on our Autograph Lottery page!

No, only our rarest guests are in the lottery. Generally any guest who is hosting paid autograph sessions isn’t in the lottery at all.

No. You can enter any time during the lottery period. Entering early does not increase your chances of winning.

You can only enter a lottery once. Entering a lottery multiple times does not increase your chances of winning. Duplicate entries will be deleted and repeated attempts at duplicate entries may void all your lottery entries without notification.

Yes. You must enter with your full real name, and this name must match your Photo ID. If you win, you must bring your Photo ID with you to claim your autograph ticket. If your name does not match your ID, you will be unable to claim your autograph ticket.

While your real name must be used to enter and claim your autograph ticket, you can ask the guest to personalize (if allowed, some guests may opt not to offer personalizations) your autograph to your preferred name.

If your child is a minor and does not have a photo ID, there will be an option on the lottery page for you to indicate as such. Please note that your child must have a badge to enter the lottery. You can show your own photo ID during ticket pick up, along something official with your child’s name on it, such as a school report card or school notice.

If you wish to pass your autograph ticket on to someone else, both parties must be on-site. The winner must present their ID to claim the ticket and the wristband will be placed on the other person’s arm. The winner cannot collect the wristband to give away to someone else at another time.

We’re sorry, but no.

We can make exceptions in these specific cases.

If your child is underage, you are welcome to accompany them.

If you have a specific medical need and need a helper present, we can accommodate this.

We’re sorry but they are not able to accept gifts.

Guests may have restrictions on what items they will sign, please respect their decision. All our autographing guests reserves the right to refuse to sign any items at their discretion.

PHOTO OP FAQs

Pricing will vary by guest. You can find pricing here.

We’re sorry, but if a guest is not offering pre-orders for a photo op, that means they are not participating in photo ops.

Selfies will be at the guests’ discretion. Please ask at their table and be aware that some guests will charge for selfies.

A photo op is a professionally taken photo in front of a backdrop by our partner, Epic Experiences. Minutes after the photo is taken, you will receive a printed copy (a digital copy is also available for purchase). Please be aware that photo ops are not Meet and Greet opportunities. Photo ops last a few seconds with little to no opportunity to chat with a guest.

A selfie is a photo taken at the guest’s table using your phone. You will generally be able to chat with a guest for a minute or so while taking the photo.

Photo op times will be assigned by Epic closer to the show. You’ll receive an email from Epic Experiences when you are assigned a timeslot.

We’re sorry, but no. Guests cannot accept gifts during photo op sessions.

Yes! You can bring a prop or ask a guest for a specific pose. BUT please be aware that guests can decline to take a photo with a prop and/or strike a specific pose at their discretion.
