CELEB ZONE BASICS
Welcome to our Celeb Zone basic training page. Please read this page thoroughly and if you have any questions please reach out to the Celeb Zone Lead.
CELEB ZONE EXPECTATIONS
In addition to the Volunteer Guidelines Celeb Zone Team have some additional important expectations.
• Be kind and courteous to Guests, Attendees, and Staff at all times. • Be on time for your shifts. • Assist Special Guests with cash handling, and any show related needs. (Get them to panels, lunches, breaks, etc). • Proper Cash Handling and Reporting of Sales. • Do not be a SUPERFAN with guests. Be friendly and helpful, but don’t inundate the guest with questions.
The biggest NO NO is: DO NOT ask the guests to sign free stuff for you.
We ask that everyone in Celeb Zone wear BLACK POLO and have your Crew Badge visible at all times.

CELEB ZONE LINE TAPE
In front of each Celeb table tape is put down to divide up the line and keep it organized. A “fast lane” for those with VIP badges. A section for regular attendees in the center. And an aisle to exit.
