With the event heading our way faster than a conveyex on an icy Vandor track, ReedPop lay out the requirements for visitors to the reduced capacity 2021 running of New York Comic Con. If you’re attending, be sure to closely check what NYCC are asking of you.
Verification of Vaccination for Ages 12+
At this time, we anticipate that everyone entering the Javits Center over the age of 12 will need to be fully vaccinated with a vaccine approved or authorized by the FDA or WHO against COVID-19 in order to attend and participate at NYCC and must show proof of vaccination at their time of entry.Details regarding full vaccination status and our verification process will be provided over the next two weeks. We expect to accept proof of vaccination of any vaccine approved or authorized by the World Health Organization or the FDA and that guests will be permitted to display proof on a smartphone or present a physical copy of their vaccination card along with a government issued ID reflecting the name on the documentation. New York State residents or anyone who received a COVID-19 vaccine in New York State may present proof through the use of the Excelsior Pass (for more details, visit: https://epass.ny.gov).
