Pre-register online

Pre-registration runs through July 21. After this date, you must register at the door.

Do I need to bring ID to Kumoricon Lite?

Yes, everyone must bring government-issued photo ID, even if you are registering at the door. ID must be valid (not expired).

Examples of acceptable forms of identification:

• State-issued driver license
• State-issued driver permit
• State-issued identification card
• Military ID
• Passport

For attendees age 13 to 17 only, if one of the above forms of ID is not available, then school ID from the current or previous school year is acceptable. If school ID is not available, then the attendee's parent or legal guardian must be present during check-in.

If acceptable ID is not presented, you will not be able to enter Kumoricon Lite.

Is parent permission required to attend Kumoricon Lite?

Yes, for all attendees under age 18.

Do parents need to attend Kumoricon Lite with their children?

Yes, but only for attendees under age 13. For these attendees, parents or legal guardians must remain with their children at all times, and the parent or guardian must be a paid attendee as well.

How does parent permission work?

1. Download the parent permission and release form – blank version for handwriting, or fillable version for typing your information.
2. The parent or legal guardian signs the form.
3. The attendee brings it with them to the event when registering or checking in. If the attendee is age 13 or over, the parent does not need to attend.

The permission form must be brought in person.
