Code of Conduct

As an attendee or vendor, you are asked to carry yourself in a dignified manner. Anyone found to be disorderly will be removed from the convention without refund.

Costume Policy

We are a family-friendly convention. Please exercise modesty with costume choice. If the convention staff feels your costume is too risque, you may be asked to change. If you’d like to clear a costume with us, feel free to e-mail us at Screamers@retroscreamers.com!

Weapons Policy

No real guns or live steel are allowed at the show! Costumers/cosplayers may carry prop weapons and unloaded airsoft guns as long as they have a non-removeable orange tip and are carried responsibly (i.e. not used in a threatening manner). Use common sense and you should be fine. Please take extra care when outside, as people not familiar with the show may not realize you are only carrying props.

We reserve the right to inspect any prop that enters the show.

Photography Policy

By entering the convention, you consent to be photographed and video-recorded.

Guests are welcome to take pictures and video-record around the show as long as they do so in a respectful manner. Please refrain from taking pictures/video of artwork and collectibles without first asking permission from the vendor.
