Convention Guidelines

CAVE strives to be a fun, family friendly event to be enjoyed by the community

Please be kind and courteous to others, including fellow attendees. We want everyone to enjoy the event, so be mindful of your behavior and how it affects those around you.

Real weapons are strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, firearms, swords, sharp knives, and blunt objects that could be used as weapons. The determination of what constitutes a weapon is at the discretion of CAVE security personnel.

Be respectful toward CAVE staff. While staff members are here to help, please remember they are volunteers and not professional service personnel.

Remember that cosplayers are people too—treat them with the same respect you would offer anyone else.

Cosplay is Not Consent - Always ask for permission before taking photos of others, including cosplayers and cosplay ambassadors.

Please avoid any play-fighting with cosplay props.

Help us keep the venue clean by picking up after yourself. Maintaining the space helps ensure we can return in the future.

Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated. Even if intended as a joke, it can negatively impact others’ experiences. If you or someone else is being harassed, please report it to Convention Operations immediately.

We welcome suggestions and feedback. Please submit them through the feedback form on our website or speak with a CAVE staff member onsite.

Above all, have fun and enjoy the event! We look forward to seeing you there.
