Exhibitor Space Details

The Akron Comicon convention floor is organized to include 120 exhibitor spaces divided into two primary categories:

Creators

We offer 54 spaces in our Artists’ Alley and four in an additional area for professional and independent creators, media organizations and comic-related clubs. In total, there are 54 spaces allocated to this exhibitor category, and each is 6 feet by 8 feet.

Note: All creator spaces are selected by a juried process. Please do not purchase a space without email confirmation.

Vendors

There are a total of 67 vendor booths for comic shops and independent dealers. Each space is 10 feet by 10 feet. As the Akron Comicon is a comic book convention, we politely ask vendors that non-comic-related products sold should not exceed 30 percent of the overall exhibitor presentation.

Space Type	Size	Total Spaces	Cost
Creator	6′ x 8′	54	$130
Vendor	10′ x 10′	67	$275
Each space includes a six-foot table, two chairs and two exhibitor badges. Additional badges are available at $10 each.

Note: Spaces are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. We keep a waiting list in the event of cancellations.

If you’d like to reserve a space, or would like additional information, please fill out the form below.
