All guest appearances and panels are subject to cancellation or schedule change, due to professional or personal commitments, schedule changes, or emergencies. No guarantee of guest appearance or events/panels is made. Phoenix Fan Fusion membership refunds are not provided due to guest or panel cancellation.
Not all guests will be on-site all days of the event. Appearance day(s) will be posted on the website as soon as we have them.
*Some authors may have an autograph fee. Prices are generally posted at the guest’s table, but it doesn’t hurt to ask. Some guests have autograph pre-sales before the show and some only sell on-site. Phoenix Fan Fusion has no control over prices our guests charge. Autograph signing times and guest availability are determined by the guest. Phoenix Fan Fusion strives to publish autograph and photo op schedules at least two weeks prior to the event. **Seating is not guaranteed at any specific event due to room capacity limits; we do not clear panel rooms between events. A few workshops, charity fundraisers, or special events require a separate paid admission.
