Panels Registration

We are no longer accepting Panel Submissions.

Panels are an opportunity for fans to talk about their trade of specialty or field of interest. Have a love for a certain anime? Japanese food? Games? Then apply for a panel to share your love with others!

Panel Policies

Setsucon hopes that you will have a wonderful time running a panel, and help to enrich the experience for all of the other attendees at the convention. However please be aware that there are a few guidelines you must follow when applying for your panel:

1. Panelists must preregister.
2. There are 30 minute and 60 minute time slots available for Panels. Setup and breakdown time is included in this. Other durations will be discussed on a case by case basis. Please make a note in the Additional Notes section of the Panel Registration Form if you would like to request a different duration.
3. Although Setsucon strives to be as family-friendly as possible, we do allow panels with adult (18+) material. These panels will be given a late night time slot. Please indicate on your application if adult (18+) material is likely to appear in your panel.
4. A panel can have as many panelists as needed, but please keep it reasonable. More than four panelists is generally pushing it. Keep in mind the reimbursement policies below.
5. Panelists must be 16 years of age or older
6. Submission of a Panel Request is a proposal. Setsucon holds the right to not choose your panel for the convention.

The Panels Coordinator will contact you starting December 10, 2011 regarding your submission. After December 10, 2011, we may accept panels if space permits.

Panelist Registration Reimbursement

Setsucon will provide registration reimbursement as a thank you for providing your services as a panelist. Reimbursement is contingent on the following conditions:

1. All panelists must adhere to the convention policies.
2. Content must be kept to a PG-13 level.
3. 18+ panels cannot have any live action pornographic images or videos. Hentai, cursing, and violence are allowed for the 18+ panels as long as it’s within reason.

Reimbursement only applies to the person/people who conduct the panel (max two panelists per panel will be reimbursed). Reimbursement will be mailed in the form of a check no later than two weeks after the convention ends.

If you have any further questions, please contact the Panels Coordinator.
