CCI: We’re Not Sold Out For 2007… Yet

I spoke to David Glanzer yesterday about the tickets sales for Comic-Con International, which kicks off with a Preview night on July 25. A rumor had popped up that the convention had sold out, and Glanzer wanted to make it clear 1) that this wasn't the case and 2) it could certainly happen between now and July 25. According to Glanzer, the Con trys to negotiate the last stages of attendance as fairly as they can. For example, last year they shut down on-line registration for a couple of the convention's days to better ensure processing people who were standing in line. This year they moved back both professional and press registration, with a warning that press registration on-site would be subject to any overall attendance caps, in order to get a bigger number of pre-registered people of both type and minimize the last minute crush.

So: while at this point says all tickets are open, you should try to take care of any ticket buying that you can take care of as soon as possible. Individual days or types of tickets might be subject to limits as they get closer to the date, and the show itself might present another wave of problems.
