Scams, Healthy and Safety

Please beware of individuals who may try to contact you or post on social media about the resale of MCM & EGX tickets. These resellers are highly unlikely to have tickets available, and we do not allow the resale of MCM & EGX tickets unless through a dedicated ticket reseller, which we would made available through mcmcomiccon.com only. Our tickets are sold only through us and are not made available through third parties.

Please beware of hotel booking companies who contact MCM fans and exhibitors claiming to be either a preferred supplier or, in some cases, working for our event, demand up-front payment, charge substantial penalties for changes and cancellation and may not even make a reservation with the unapproved hotel. You should always read the small print.

We advise that you make your travel and accommodation arrangements through reputable suppliers and not via unsolicited phone calls or emails. We team up with HotelMaps to provide verified hotel listings, which can be found on our homepage.
