Auugh excuse my noobness, but for some reason I can't remember how I knew when to get concert tickets. I attended the HALCALI concert last year, and I knew that I got up early that day to get the ticket (it was a saturday, I believe), but for some reason I don't remember how I knew when they're giving the tickets out. I did a quick search and didn't find anything.

Since I'm usually good with remembering stuff, I'm gonna say that we don't know when tickets for masquerade/concerts are given out until we get there?? Actually, a better question would just be: When are event tickets gonna be given out?! XD Thanks in advance!

It is on the main site.

http://www.acen.org/...cs/tickets.html

I also believe you can get them once registration opens. So, that would be 4pm on Thursday and then 8am on Friday and Saturday and Sunday. I may be wrong on the times, so do not quote me on that, but that is what I remember from reading a thread.

Edit: Added more info.

That's not my question. My question is when the tickets will be given out. Ie what time of the day. I've read the rules, and as I've said I've been to concerts before at ACen. My question is when the ticket booths will be giving them out this year. I know I phrased my question really confusingly XD; you probably didn't catch my edit.

I'd really like to know this cuz the concert I want to attend is on Friday night, and the concert I attended last year was on Saturday night (so I picked up my tickets Saturday morning), but I don't know how early I'll get to ACen on Friday, so I need to know the time to make sure that I get there in time for a ticket.

Yes, that was your question. You said, HOW. I quote you.

Also, look at my edit.

I'm in college too, but I go to a community college, so therefore I still live with my over-protective mom...-____- she told me last night that my curfew is 10:30pm until I move out ;-;

BUT ANYHOOOO!! If anyone could confirm the time of the day when the friday concert tickets will be given out, please post! :D

It shows you the time when registration opens, which is the same time for the tickets. You can get your ticket when registration opens. :) At least, that is what I was told.

If you already have your badge, you might not have to wait in line to get into the place where registration is, but I could be wrong. I am not on staff so I do not know. I would wait for a reg staff member to confirm whether what I say is true or not. :)

Edit: Corrected sentence.

I just want to point out this from the ticket policy section on the main site:

Quote

A: Easy! We’re giving away a portion of the tickets to each event at several different times throughout the con. Tickets will be available at a booth marked “TICKETS” near Registration and Customer Service in the Stevens Convention Center. This is the only place where tickets will be given away. The ticket giveaway schedule will be available in the Program Book.


It will be posted in the program books and if you get your book when reg opens you can see the time listings for the ticket give away times.
Remember...

Short but sweet!!

Ok, but basically parts of the friday concert block tickets will be given on friday morning at 8am (possibly) and then I'd have to get there to read the booklet to see when the 2nd portion may be given out on Friday?

See, that's the tricky thing ;-; right now, none of us (unless someone from the appropriate department confirms it) knows when, or if at all, the 2nd portion of tickets will be. I'm pretty sure at 8am they'll be giving it out, but I don't know if I can make it to Acen by then (And by then there'll probably a long line waiting for tickets). Roooooar X_X Maybe I'll just hope for the best and see what happens when I get there on Friday :\

And is it just me? How come MOVE and the Slants are only playing on Friday night? Usually there are 2 concerts for the same artists. (Like how HALCALI had 2 concerts, one on friday and one on saturday. Or am I remembering things wrong?? XD)

The Slants have two concerts. One on Friday with M.O.V.E and one with Vic on Saturday.
