MINECON tickets are here!
In an effort to be fair to people who have jobs or school and those with different schedules, Mojang is releasing tickets in 3 batches to cover different days and times. Each batch is for 2500 tickets, and you can purchase up to 6 tickets in one order, to cover families or groups of friends traveling together.
THE RELEASE SCHEDULE IS:
- Ticket Batch 1 – Wednesday July 31 @ 4pm PDT / 7pm EDT
- Ticket Batch 2 – Friday August 2nd @ 7am PDT / 10am EDT
- Ticket Batch 3 – Saturday August 3rd @ 12pm PDT / 3pm EDT
When you book your tickets you can also book hotels at our special MINECON rates. We have a variety of hotels available with different prices and different distances from the Convention Center.
Visit minecon.mojang.com to book! Tickets are $150 each, 3yo and under get in for free and don’t need a ticket!
MINECON will be held at the Orange County Convention Center and will be on November 2-3, times to be announced later (probably from around 10am to around 5pm each day).
More details will follow about activities at MINECON, but there will of course be panels from Mojang and many community members, an awesome tradeshow where you can check out cool products and services revolving around Minecraft, and of course lots of Minecraft merchandise for sale.
Volunteer and panelist submissions will be taken soon, details to come in the coming weeks.
Companies wishing to exhibit: email Mojang for exhibitor information.

I think I'll have a hard time convincing my parents to let me go.
Anyone please tell me how to, if there is a way.

Tickets were not sold out that fast because they were "pending". What happens is a person can click on the green order button and then it takes you to a screen where you fill out purchasing info. There's also a timer that tells the purchaser the have 15:00 minutes to complete their transaction or the tickets will be released to the next person for purchase. SO a lot of people just decided to go to transaction page and wait to decide if they really wanted to buy their tickets and ended up letting the timer run out. That being said if anyone still wants try to get their hands on a ticket for the last batch today should try refreshing their browser. Yes, I sat at my pc and hit "F5" to refresh my browser for 30 minutes. There were a few times when the green "Order Now" button showed and I clicked on it but I was too slow and the next page read there were no tickets available. If this happens, again refresh the page.
You will know when they're sold out when they don't have that pending message and it should read something like sold out.
Minecon in its own has almost as much people that go to it as PAX. If they doubled the ticket amount, per se, People could ACTUALLY GO.
It seems my dreams of going to minecon are shattered, case in 5 hours batch 3 comes and my fortnightly paycheck doesnt come until next week, and I missed batch 1 and 2!
What is included in the ticket price? t-shirt? food? headsets?
Curious as to why the price is so high? Megacon was only $30 and seemed to offer quite a bit more?
Access to Minecon 2013 for both days.
