Code of Conduct

The main purpose of Cowtown Comic Con is for the attendees to have fun, and to achieve this goal, Cowtown Comic Con has established rules of conduct. These rules were created to ensure the behavior of any one individual or group of attendees does not disturb the enjoyment of another attendee, nor detract from the comfortable atmosphere of the event. Cowtown Comic Con welcomes everyone; however, Cowtown Comic Con reserves the right to deny or revoke the attendance of any individual, when an individual's presence or behavior causes significant interference with event operations or adversely affects the organization's relationship with its guests or with its venue. Cowtown Comic Con also reserves the right to amend these rules at any time without prior or posted notice. If you have any questions, please contact the event operations staff for assistance. Anyone who accepts a Cowtown Comic Con ticket or wristband agrees to abide by our Code of Conduct.

General Rating of the Event

Cowtown Comic Con dignifies itself on presenting an atmosphere that is comfortable for fans of all ages. Cowtown Comic Con attendees are expected to act accordingly. All event areas are considered for everyone.

Attendance by Minors

Cowtown Comic Con strives to maintain an environment that is safe and enjoyable for attendees of all ages. Cowtown Comic Con will not take responsibility for the actions of individual attendees, nor will Cowtown Comic Con assume responsibility for minors. A minor is defined as a person under 18 years of age who has not been legally emancipated from his or her parents. Cowtown Comic Con will not assume any responsibility over any minor.

Firearm Policy

Cowtown Comic Con does not allow the possession of any firearms into our event. Open Carry/CHL/LTC or any other combination does not grant permission to bring a firearm onto the premises. Unless you are previously approved Security/Staff for Cowtown Comic Con, please do not bring a firearm into the building. The only exception to this rule will be for off duty peace officers, as we legally cannot deny off duty peace officers entry, solely due to their possession of a firearm.

No real weapons, or any item that can be easily mistaken for a weapon, may be carried either openly or concealed at any time in the event space, regardless of any concealed carry permits.
