How do I participate in Fundays 2023?

This year’s theme is Camp Fundays! Full of classic camping games and team comradery, there will be a variety of contests, exclusive giveaways, and special guests. Fundays tickets are separate tickets, not connected to your convention tickets. Fundays tickets are required for entry to this unique Funko experience. Tickets are sold out. See you soon!

What is the Fundays Box of Fun?

Camp Fundays bring a whole new Box of Fun! There are 4 new team themes and each box is full of limited edition, exclusive collectibles only available through the Box of Fun available on Funko.com or the in-person Fundays celebration. More details about the Fundays Box of Fun coming soon!

Are there ID requirements or an age limit to enter the event?

Yes, we check IDs when checking everyone in. There's no age requirement to attend. While we do not recommend this event for small children, children are welcome. However, each and every attendee will require their own ticket, regardless of age.

Is my Fundays registration/ticket transferrable?

No. The ticket buyer must use their own ticket. It is not permissible to transfer or sell your ticket. Any attempts at selling tickets will result in cancellation of said ticket.

Why can't I change the name on my second Fundays ticket?

Tickets will only have the name of the buyer. The second ticket is looked at as a "+1" of the buyer. The holder or the tickets and their 1+ must check in together.

Why is the limit only two (2) Fundays tickets per customer?

Our ticketing limitations are designed to allow as many people to attend Fundays as possible. We want to make sure we spread the tickets out and don't want people purchasing blocks of tickets. We reserve the right to cancel any attempts to purchase more than two (2) tickets.

Why is the policy only one (1) Box of Fun per Fundays ticket-holder/attendee/online purchase?

We want those tickets and Boxes of Fun to go to as many fans who would like to actually attend the event and collect extremely unique items for their sets. Fundays is a celebration of the Funko family and community, where we can also give back to our dedicated Funatics. The idea is to come to the event and experience Fundays together - not just collect the free stuff or snag bundles of boxes from the website.

Do I have to bring a printed copy Fundays ticket to the event?

No, but we recommend it. You can show your ticket on your phone to check-in. Printed versions help us check everyone in faster to start the show though.

The name on the registration/ticket doesn't match the attendee. Is that okay?

No! We will check IDs at the entrance and the name must match the ticket. You can only redeem one (1) ticket per attendee. If you somehow have multiple tickets, you will not receive multiple Boxes of Fun. Only one (1) Box of Fun will be given to each ticket-holder.

I don't have tickets for SDCC. Can I still attend Fundays?

Yes! You do not need to be a SDCC badge holder to be able to attend Fundays. It’s a separate event happening Friday July 21st, 2023.

Will you be selling exclusives at Fundays?

No, Fundays is a celebration! We will not be selling any items at the event.

If I need ADA assistance when I arrive, how do I check in?

No problem! When you're arriving to check in for Fundays, just talk to security or a staff member and we'll assist you in-person.

How will seating at Fundays work this year?

Fundays is being held at a new location this year but seating will be similar. Please be in line with who you want to sit with and check in together - groups of 10 are not necessary but ideal! You will be assigned to a table at check-in. You will not be able to save seats at your table for someone who is arriving later. You may be able to trade with other willing attendees, but the best chance of sitting with who you want to is to arrive together! The check-in lines are organized by Camp Fundays teams, so be prepared to pick your desired team since once you are checked in you cannot switch lines to pick a different team or sit with others from a different team.

For additional questions, please reach out to Funko's social media channels on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram @OriginalFunko and check in regularly to see updates.
