WasabiCon 2014 Vendor Space is now available!

Thank you for your interest in being a vendor at WasabiCon 2014!  Convention attendees enjoy being able to shop and purchase merchandise related to pop culture, anime, cartoons, comics, video games, sci-fi, and fantasy at our event.  Thus we offer a “Vendors Room” as a part of the con going experience.  Each Vendors Room space comes with:
An eight foot by eight foot area (8 x 8) in the Vendors Room

• One (1) six foot table
• Two (2) chairs
• Two (2) weekend passes to the convention (labeled “Vendor”)

You can purchase one (1) additional weekend pass (labeled “Vendor”) per Vendors Room space that you order for $25. You may purchase additional tables for your space, as well, for $25 each.
There is a limit of four (4) spaces per vendor. This is due to floorplan logistics and to be fair to other vendors.
The price of each space is dependant on when you purchase it.
April 15, 2014 until August 31, 2014 (at 11:55 PM) – $150 per space.
June 16, 2014 until September 30, 2014 (at 11:55 PM) – $175 per space.
August 16, 2014 until October 15, 2014 (at 11:55 PM) – $225 per space.
We will stop selling space in the Vendors Room on October 15, 2014 in order to complete the floorplan for the event.
