FAQ | Tea & Tropes Events

I want to be involved, how can I apply?

Applications are currently closed. Please keep an eye out for opportunities for our future shows!

I don't write fantasy, can I still apply to be an attending author?

Yes, you can still apply. Priority will be given to fantasy authors, but don't let that discourage you! We will have a waitlist for cases of cancelations, no shows, and if we expand to a bigger room and have more tables to fill!

Is there an age policy?

The author and vendor market is all ages! The Dark Masquerade and the Fantasy Faire are 18+. ID's will be checked at the gate.

My plans changed. Can I get a refund?

All sales are final and no refunds will be issued. However, we understand that plans may change, so you may resell your ticket in one of our resell groups (Coming Soon).

Interested in sponsoring?

We would love to work with you! If you are an author, vendor, influencer, or cosplayer interested in sponsoring the event, please email info@teaandtropes.com for more information.

My question isn't here. Who can I contact?

Please don't hesitate to send any questions to info@teaandtropes.com or use the Contact section to send us a message! We will get back to you as soon as we can!

What is the bag policy?

There is not a specific bag policy. All totes, purses, and backpacks are welcome. Top loading carts are also allowed. No wagons, dollys, or suitcases. All bags are subject to search at security's discretion.

I already have my ticket. Do I need to go to registration?

Yes. Please check in at registration to get your badge. Badges allow you in and out access throughout the event. Registration opens prior to the market opening to allow more time to check people in. Getting your badge early does not grant early access.

What payment types are accepted?

Each author and vendor choose their own accepted payment types. Please check with them individually to find out what payment options they accept. All tickets and official Tea & Tropes merch is card/tap only.

What is the dress code?

The market and Faire are casual, but costumes are encouraged! The ball is formal/black tie.

Where do I park?

Please check the venue page for more information, directions, and maps.

Can I buy tickets at the door?

Yes, while supplies last!

Can I just buy tickets for one of the evening events?

No, we do not sell tickets to the evening events separately.

How many books can I get signed?

Featured authors have a limit of two per person. All authors with their own booths create their own limits. Please reach out to them for specific numbers.
