Getting there
- Parking is free on site at the Vineland Convention Center, with more street parking along East Landis Avenue.
- VIP passes get in 30 minutes before general admission.
Accessibility
- Go to the Accessibility Service Table near the main entrance for a bracelet that tells staff and security you may need extra help, plus one for a companion.
- You pay full admission, but one attendant or caregiver can get in free: ask at the table. Their free one-day pass is picked up there each day.
- Accessible panel seating is first come, first served; come at least 15 minutes early.
- There's no priority access for autographs or photo ops, but someone in your group can hold your place in line.
- GSCF doesn't lend or rent wheelchairs, walkers or other equipment.
- Need an interpreter for a main panel room session? Buy your pass, then email Gardenstatecf@gmail.com at least three weeks before the show with your name, days and the panels. They can't be arranged at the show.
- Service animals are welcome; emotional support, therapy and comfort animals aren't. The venue calls itself ADA accessible.

Cosplay and props
- All props go through a weapons check at the main entrance.
- Allowed, if security agrees: light plastic or metal shields, foam props, light plastic or PVC props including lightsabers, and prop bows with soft foam or cardboard arrow tips.
- Toy guns must not look real or fire, with an orange tip and brightly colored caps over every barrel. No metal swords or knives.
- If you have to wonder whether something's allowed, it probably isn't.
