Welcome to the 29th Dragon Con! This year we expanded our very popular VIP option that includes aquarium admission, private lounge with views of animal gallery, open bar, light bites and a limited edition Dragon Con collectible pin. Additionally we have added our newest Cosplay Competition—The Chôsen—hosted by the amazing and oh so talented Yaya Han and the fabulous Marc Lee. The winner of this competition will receive the most coveted price of all, a 3-Night Paid Hotel Stay for the 2016 Dragon Con, along with other cool offerings. We are glad you are here. It’s going to be a great year, full of lots of cool new things, as well as, the old favorites. After a wonderfully successful live broadcast of our parade last year on DCTV, we will continue so that you may enjoy the incredible spectacle of the Dragon Con parade from the comfort of your hotel room. Other exciting news on the DCTV front is that we have added a second channel this year to all host hotels with the exception of the Westin. The new channel will be “DCTV Land,” bringing delight to all with footage from past Dragon Con events so that you can kick back and reminisce about the days of yore. And the new fun doesn’t stop there…for those of you who enjoy listening to the delightful music of the Concourse stage and want a little change in scenery, we have placed a second stage at the AmericasMart Building 2 outside of the Vendor Halls. It will surely be a great place to visit with friends and revel in the talents of our 30 bands joining us for the Dragon Con festivities while breaking from all of your shopping enjoyment. We do hope you take a moment to go out and check it out! Don’t forget to enjoy what has become a Dragon Con tradition. Saturday night from 7:00 pm–11:00 pm, will be Dragon Con Night at the Georgia Aquarium. The aquarium is set up to sell discounted tickets at the Sheraton, outside of Registration if you have not already secured your spot.
Looking for another awesome event to attend Saturday night if the Aquarium isn’t your thing? Be sure to check out the Georgia Philharmonic Orchestra in Centennial Ballroom at 7:00 pm. Enter a wonderful fantasy world as the Georgia Philharmonic Orchestra presents a wonderful program of music from famous Science Fiction and Fantasy films. Prepare to be beamed up to galaxies far, far away where space is the final frontier, and one can marvel at the magical worlds that unfold note by note. In this special program, listen to scores from some of the most iconic and beloved works, and share in a live unforgettable experience. We’ve come to expect a lot of our giving fans and you all have definitely not disappointed. Last year we sent $115K to the Atlanta Community Food Bank and we want to do even more for the Lymphoma Research Foundation this year. This year’s selection is a very personal choice, as two long-time members of the Dragon Con family—Eugie Foster, Director of the Daily Dragon, and Mark Brown, Co-Director of Convention Operations—recently died from lymphoma, while a third member is currently battling it. Help us raise funds in their honor! Once again we have arranged an outstanding line up of guests and professionals. Please respect the privacy of our guests and stars. They will be available for autographs in the Walk of Fame, or in the autograph area, but not on the convention floor or in hotel restaurants. Some of our stars ask to be photographed only in a controlled environment.
Many have photo ops that you can sign up for in advance or at the show. We ask that you not take photos of the guests while they are autographing. Please ask the stars or their agents what their photo policy is and adhere to it. Basically, please allow them to enjoy their Dragon Con experience too! Speaking of allowing others to enjoy the experience, we want to remind you of our harassment policy as well as the process to report instances should they occur. Be sure to read onto the next page to get all of the details. We are determined to eliminate any and all inappropriate conduct to the best of our ability. We will again be doing badge checks to control access and occupancy of the hotels and will be expanding the hours to other high traffic times. This is to insure that there is plenty of space for you members to move about. Please wear your membership badges in plain view whenever you are in convention space or the public areas of the hotels. We have a new app again this year built for the iPhone, Droid, and a web based version for all other users. This will keep you updated with the latest information changes throughout the convention. All of the information that you are used to finding in our Pocket Program plus much more will be available on your smart phone. Even more exciting, this year we added an enhancement that includes a parent shell that will mean in future years you will not have to search to download the app, as it will instead populate in the parent shell once released. On behalf of our 2200 volunteers, we wish you a wonderful Dragon Con experience. Thanks for making us part of your Labor Day weekend.

Convention Policies
Vital Information
As a Dragon Con 2015 Member, Guest, Professional, Program Participant, Dealer, Exhibitor, or Volunteer you have received a membership badge. Please wear it at all times during the convention and in convention public areas.
Weapons Policy
We pride Dragon Con on being a safe place, where everybody is welcome and anybody can be whomever they desire. Even so, certain kinds of offensive or harassing behavior are not tolerated. To the best of our ability, we intend to eliminate inappropriate conduct from the convention. It is very important that if you are being harassed or are in any way endangered, you report it immediately to the Security Office in the Marriott Room M102. Their direct line is 404-5866343. In our Security operation area, there will be a private screening area and an Atlanta Police officer specifically assigned to council individuals who feel that they have been harassed. We cannot address anything that we are not made aware of and we need whatever detail can be provided, such as names, badge numbers, or other descriptive information. Additionally, the Marriott Marquis has set up a special line for those witnessing dangerous conditions in their hotel. The Marriott Marquis security number is 678-806-8708. Additionally, this number can also receive text messages.
Real firearms are not allowed at Dragon Con. This includes those attendees who maintain a Georgia Weapons Carry License or a similar permit from another state. Dragon Con security, hotel security, and local law enforcement officials will treat anything that looks like a real weapon as a weapon. Attendees who choose to ignore this policy may be asked to leave the convention and will have their membership revoked. Since violators can also be arrested, you should know that Dragon Con does not post bail. (Sworn law enforcement are excused from this policy.)
DC TV: Live Broadcasts
Brand New Concourse Stage at the AmericasMart
Again this year, DC TV presents The Dragon Con Late Show, broadcast LIVE every morning at 9:00 am on DC TV—now with live studio audiences!
We have taken all of the gaming information and moved it into its own book! Copies of the Gaming Guide are available at Gaming Registration in the Galleria Ballroom at the Hilton.
Dragon Con Concourse Stage will continue in its flagship location in the Hyatt Regency, and this year we will be adding a second stage in the Vendor Halls at the AmericasMart, Building 2!
Pre-Recorded & Copyrighted Music Policy
To ensure the safety of all of our attendees, there will be times that the hotels will require you to have your badge in order to enter the hotel. Alternatively, a valid hotel key (to the hotel you are trying to enter) may be used.
It is the policy of Dragon Con not to allow any prerecorded music or copyrighted music to be played in the convention areas without written permission from the copyright holder, unless you are the recording artist/band or copyright holder. Violations of this policy will not be tolerated.
Large Room Capacity Policy
Daily Dragon
Don’t Forget Your Badge!
All event and program rooms have limited capacity as set by the Fire Marshal. Even though your badge is needed to get into all events, it does not guarantee you access to any event if the room has reached its capacity. Additionally, all large ballrooms will be cleared in between panels.
Dragon Con reserves the right to revoke or suspend memberships and passes. If an individual breaks the rules of the convention, he or she may be barred from the convention, either for several hours (to sober up, perhaps) or for the rest of the event. If an individual breaks the law—city, state or federal—he or she will be arrested. If you have been accused of harassment and feel that you were treated unfairly you may appeal to the convention chair, but that decision will be final.
Line Formation Policy
Our complete “Convention Policies and Rules” can be found on page 4 of your Program Book, in our app under “Show Documents,” or online at dragoncon.org/?q=convention_policies.
All Hotel Bars Closing Early
4
Gaming Guide
Lines for ballroom events will not be allowed to form more than one hour prior to the event, or until the line for the current event has completely entered the ballroom. Each ballroom will have signage marking the location where the line may start to form. Those in line will not be allowed to enter the ballroom until the previous panel has been completely cleared. As per Georgia regulations, all of the hotel bars will be closing on Sunday, September 6, 2015 at 12:00 midnight (Monday morning).
The Daily Dragon will be available each day of the convention at the information booths, registration desk, and in the fan track rooms.

Hotel Vaping Policies
Our host hotels classify vaping as smoking. As such vaping will not be allowed inside the buildings except in designated areas and “smoking permitted” hotel rooms. Generally, vaping areas are not separate from smoking areas. If you have questions about your hotel’s “no smoking/no vaping” policies or designated smoking areas, please check with the hotel conceirge desk or hotel staff.
