IMPORTANT: THE FINAL EVENT SCHEDULE WILL NOT BE COMPLETED UNTIL THE WEEK OF THE CONVENTION. IF THERE IS A SCHEDULE CONFLICT AGAINST ANOTHER MEET & GREET (only), YOU CAN CHOOSE WHICH ONE TO KEEP AND WE WILL REFUND YOU FOR THE MEET & GREET YOU WILL GIVE UP.

PLEASE BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN BIDDING! ONCE YOU PLACE YOUR BID IT IS CONSIDERED A CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENT. WE WILL NOT RETRACT BIDS IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE OR CHANGE YOUR MIND.  PAYMENT IS DUE AT THE CLOSE OF THE AUCTION.

Our auction system allows you to place a maximum bid which you can’t increase along the way or it will show up as two separate bids. You must wait to re-bid only when you have been knocked off the high bidder list. We recommend placing one bid for the maximum amount you're willing to pay for the auction item.

STATE TAXES INCLUDED ON YOUR INVOICE:
As a result of the Supreme Court Ruling during 2018 affecting online sales taxes (both state and local taxes), various states are requiring sales tax (both state and local taxes) on ANY online sales; therefore, you may now start seeing a separate charge on your invoice for this sales tax. The prices at the conventions will be the same as those online. The sales tax rate for FLORIDA is 7.0%  Visit the National Conference of State Legislatures website for more information.

THINGS TO KNOW!

*NEW POLICY: YOU MUST BE 18 YEARS OR OLDER TO ATTEND.

*Ticket is non-transferrable and not meant for resale.

* You must have an admission ticket for the convention on the day of this event.

*Creation reserves the right to reject any potential purchaser or winner for any reason we deem appropriate.

*If a caretaker is required, we must be notified in advance and the caretaker must sit on the side of the room and not participate or engage as it would not be fair to those who purchased tickets.

*This event is for social purposes only. Keep conversation and questions light and pleasant in nature – professional agendas (i.e., pitching ideas, scripts etc…) will not be allowed.

*Be fair to your fellow attendees and share the celebrity’s time.

If one or more of the other attendees is dominating the conversations in the private meet and greets please staff know so they can make sure this does not occur more than once.  If the volunteer present is not enforcing the rules please advise Stephanie or Monica so changes can be instituted on site.  EVERY ATTENDEE is entitled to have a great time, but we have to know about it as it occurs to take the necessary actions. We can’t help you resolve issues after the Convention is over.

*The schedule of events listing the time/location of this meet & greet can be found on our website the Wednesday afternoon of convention week.  You can also pick-up a printed schedule at the convention.

*We always try not to schedule meet & greets against each other. However, in case this does happen we will refund your money for the meet & greet (only) that you will miss. PLEASE LET ME KNOW OF ANY CONFLICTS BEFORE THE CONVENTION AS WE CANNOT REFUND MONEY AT THE CONVENTION.

*Creation Entertainment reserves the right to cancel this stated event and refund payments if necessary.

*No alcoholic beverages allowed.

*No autographs/photographs/audio-visual taping of any kind.

We will allow our Creation Representative to snap a “group” photo of you with the other guests and the celebrity (all together) using your camera at a designated time toward the end of the event should you want a memento.

* No recording and/or posting transcripts of private meet & greets.  

The private celebrity meet and greets are for a limited number of fans and are just that, private.  The guests feel freer to discuss topics they may not want to in front of larger groups where their thoughts may go viral.  It is at the request of the guests, particularly the major ones, that these meet and greet sessions are not audio or videotaped and are not transcribed or posted in any way.  Information heard or obtained from the meet & greets may not be posted or disseminated in any way.  This is to protect the requests of our actors who wish to keep these meet & greets private.  

Kindly understand that anyone who records, transcribes or posts about anything that was discussed, talked about or mentioned during the meet & greets will no longer be allowed to purchase future meet & greets.  We must do this to protect the relationship we all have (fandom and Creation) with our celebrities.
