BADGE MAILINGS (BEGIN IN NOVEMBER)

Badges purchased with shipping will start mailing in November 2025. BADGES WILL NOT BE MAILED IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOUR ORDER. International badges (including territories outside the domestic US) will not be shipped and will be held for pick up onsite.

WHO NEEDS A BADGE?

All attendees six-years-old and up need a badge for Anime Frontier. We recommend all children under 18 attend with an adult, and all children under 13 must have an adult with them while attending.

The QR code is not an entry ticket and is not valid for entry by itself. The physical badge is required for entry to the show.

BADGE POLICY 

All badge sales are final, with no refunds or cancellations. Badges are subject to Texas’ 8.25% sales tax and service fees. Upgrades are available only on an as-available basis. Separate badges may need to be purchased for certain events.

Please note all guests are subject to cancellation or schedule changes due to professional commitments and refunds will not be issued because of a change to a guest’s schedule. Up-to-date schedule changes will be posted on the website and social media channels during the show should any arise.

A NOTE ABOUT AUTOGRAPHS AND PANEL SESSIONS

Anime Frontier’s guests generally spend time signing autographs and doing Q&A sessions with fans.

A badge does not guarantee access to an autograph or panel session. No refunds will be issued if autographs or panels are at capacity.

HARASSMENT 

Anime Frontier is committed to fostering an atmosphere where attendees can count on a safe, inclusive, and rewarding experience, and harassment is the opposite of the community we want to create. Any conduct designed to harass, provoke, or intimidate isn’t allowed and can lead to your removal from Anime Frontier. If you feel harassed or see harassment, please report it to a member of our security team. Harassment of any kind is unwelcome at Anime Frontier.

SCALPERS

Don’t try to scalp badges. Any and all scalpers we identify will have their orders canceled and badges voided.

MERCH

2025 Merch is not shipped and must be picked up on-site from the official Anime Frontier merch booth during the show.

Vintage merch purchased with shipping before October 28th will be shipped within 2 weeks of your order. Vintage merch purchased without shipping must be picked up on-site from the official Anime Frontier merch booth during the show.

A badge is required to pick up unshipped merch. Unclaimed merch will not be shipped or refunded.

REFUNDS

All badge and ticket sales are final, and Anime Frontier offers no refunds or cancellations.
