Getting there

America's Center is at Washington Avenue and 8th Street. The main entrance is on the 800 block of Washington Avenue.
MetroLink: the Convention Center stop (6th and Washington) is less than two blocks away.
Parking is in garages and surface lots around downtown St. Louis.
Early badge pickup is off site, at Dave & Buster's, 13857 Riverport Dr, Maryland Heights: Thursday, October 22, 4 to 9 pm.

The Information and Accessibility Booth is in the registration area. Staff can help with line accommodations, seating, rest areas and routes, and you don't need to explain your disability.
If you find standing for long hard, a doctor's note gets you a free Fast Pass button there, for the Fast Lane at autographs and photo ops. Service animal handlers get one too.
A personal care assistant can ask at the booth for a free companion day pass, with Fast Lane access.
Wheelchairs and scooters can be rented, booked ahead only, with Scootaround, Mobility City (636-626-9001) or MedXChange (636-949-5660).
Automatic sliding doors at the Washington and Plaza entrances, with elevators in both lobbies.
Trained service dogs are welcome; emotional support animals and pets aren't.
Live captions of panels (Google Live Transcribe) on request: GalaxyCon asks for two weeks' notice at stlouis@galaxycon.com.

There's no bag policy, but Security can search bags at any time.
Bag storage is backroom storage only at St. Louis: $35 a day, no size limit, bookable ahead.
No riding skates, scooters, skateboards or hoverboards inside.
Photo op ticket lost? The Information Booth by Registration can resend your confirmation email.

Bring cash for autographs: at the show most guests take cash only. Pre-sale autographs can be bought by card on GalaxyCon's site.
GalaxyCon has cash machines on site.

Every prop is checked and tagged at the Prop Check table when you arrive; keep the tag on.
Props must be clearly toys or made of foam, cardboard or other light materials. Lightsabers are fine.
No guns or anything that looks like one (an orange tip isn't enough), no sharp points or edges, no props of metal, wood or fiberglass, and no smart glasses or recording eyewear.
Costumes are PG during exhibit hall hours, with shoes on at all times. Anything sticking out more than 4 inches (wings, spikes) counts as a prop.

America's Center doesn't allow outside food or drink. GalaxyCon has asked for exceptions for special diets and young children.
Food delivery (UberEats and the like) to the venue isn't allowed. If you go out to eat, finish it outside.
Food is sold inside, including the Center Café, and there are drinking fountains (all wheelchair accessible).
GalaxyCon's accessibility guide suggests packing medications, snacks and water, even though food is sold inside.
We couldn't find vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free options or allergen information listed by GalaxyCon or America's Center.

All toilets and drinking fountains in the Convention Center are wheelchair accessible.
Two family restrooms in the Convention Center, at Hall 4 and Hall 4X. The Washington and Plaza first aid rooms have toilets for anyone who needs help from a family member.
We couldn't find gender-neutral toilets listed by GalaxyCon or America's Center.

We couldn't find a quiet or sensory room listed. GalaxyCon says staff can point you to rest areas, and suggests earplugs or headphones and breaks away from the show floor.
The Convention Center has first aid rooms in its Washington and Plaza areas.
For help, ask any staff member or Security, or go to the Information and Accessibility Booth in registration.

GalaxyCon's code of conduct bans harassment, bullying, stalking, following people and hateful speech, and any touching (hair, body, costume or props) without consent. It doesn't name gender identity or sexual orientation.
Hate symbols and costumes meant to offend aren't allowed.
If anything makes you uncomfortable, go to Security, who are on site, or the info desk at pre-registration.
