AUTOGRAPH TYPES
Industry Appearance/Talent: Industry Appearance/Talent are listed under the Industry Appearances tab on the Talent page. Participation by Industry Talent is primarily supported by a company host or by the talent themselves with the support of an agency. As such, activities such as panels and autograph sessions are coordinated by the company host, agency, or the talent, rather than SPJA/Anime Expo. Autograph session procedures for Industry Appearances may vary significantly, as they are subject to the policies of the individual, their management, and/or the company host.
Guest (previously known as Guest of Honor): Guests are supported and brought out by Anime Expo. As such, activities such as panels and autograph sessions are coordinated by SPJA/Anime Expo. Guests are listed under the Guest tab on the Talent page.
* Please note: Some Guests may also elect to do additional paid Industry Autograph sessions.
For Anime Expo 2026, Guest signature tickets will be handled via an online lottery system. All autograph tickets will be digital; there will be no physical autograph tickets. Industry Talent signatures will be first come, first served and will not be handled by a lottery system. For Industry Appearance/Talent, please check the talent’s official social media and/or the talent’s description on the Anime Expo autograph schedule if any special ticketing procedures apply.
All autograph sessions will be hosted at the JW Marriott Gold Ballroom. Please see the Autograph General Policy for more information.
