New York Comic Con 2019 Professional

NYCC welcomes professionals across the full spectrum of pop culture industries and is happy to provide a Professional Badge to Artists, Buyers, Creators, Editors, Educators, Librarians, Licensors, Producers, Publishers, Retailers, Writers and more currently working, or retired from comics and popular arts, within the industry. Due to the volume of applications, we cannot provide Professional Badges to support staff, such as administrative staff, facilities, IT, operations and others who are not directly involved in the creative process. Do not email NYCC Staff regarding the status of your Industry Badge application prior to June 1.

We do not provide the opportunity to purchase additional NYCC Badges upon approval.

Please note: Professional Badges do not guarantee seating and do not include admission into any ticketed Special Events. Special Events Tickets must be purchased separately.

Part two of your registration must be completed by August 12. Applications that are not finalized by August 12, 2019 will be cancelled and an Professional Badge for NYCC 2019 will not be provided. Please be sure to check your spam folder if you have not seen a response from us. 

Once NYCC Professional Registration has closed no late applications will be accepted. All Professional Registration will take place during this time frame. Any late applications will not be accepted due to the limited number of badges available
