FAQ

I have a small dog and no one to look after them. They are really nice, can I bring it?

No, animals and pets are not allowed at the con. We are sorry, but we decided to ban all pets and animals for various good reasons.

I selected arrival/sleepover when purchasing the ticket, but it seems I may have to change it in the end. Is that a problem?

It’s not. We try to gather statistic data about when people are going to arrive and where they are going to sleep. This helps us plan the capacity, food and drinks. It’s not binding, and you can feel free to change this according to your actual needs.

Something came up, and I won’t be able to go in the end. Can my friend go with my ticket?

Each ticket is name bound. So, in order for us to let your friend in, you need to do a so-called ticket transfer. This can be done only once per ticket. Just let us know. More info here.

I can’t go to the event in the end. Can I sell the ticket?

Not quite. You can do a so-called ticket transfer. We will refund you and the new buyer will pay us. You two do not exchange money among yourselves. This step is supposed to protect our customers from resellers.

I’ve got a one-day ticket. Are you really not going to let me in the inn after 10 PM?

Really, with the exception of the „gaming inn“ on the 3rd floor of the building. Please respect this rule. This doesn’t apply just to the inn, but also to all interior premises – so this rule applies to the teahouse, the mead bar, etc. Also, if you want to spend the time outside, please observe the quiet hours. This rule is necessary because of the premises’ capacity.

I’ve got a one-day ticket. What are the sleepover options?

You were able to choose a sleepover option during your registration. You can do it at the event as well. You can sleep over in the sport hall on the ground or in your own tent on the meadow.

Will I be able to buy something you offer on your eshop obchod.gwint.cz?

We will have some things, but not all of them. If you want to be sure and know the price in advance, please make an order in the eshop and let us know in the comment that you want to collect the goods at Blavicon. We will prepare it and your order will be there for you to pick up.

Will I be able to play Gwent outside the tournament?

Yes, there will be a table at the same place where the tournament will be held, i.e. in the upper hall. If you don’t know how to play Gwent, we’ll teach you.

I’ve got a small kid, can I bring it?

This is a responsibility of each parent. In general, we do not recommend attending the con with children under 8. If you think it’s a good idea to bring a child, though, it’s not a problem. Minors under 13 will be allowed in only when accompanied by an adult, but such a minor will be let in free of charge. Please bear in mind that the programme is not exactly meant for younger audience, so children can be bored.

Persons above 13 but under 18 without a parent or a legal guardian will have to bring a signed consent by a legal guardian!

Can I come in a cosplay outside the world of The Witcher? Do I have to tell you in advance?

You can come in whatever you want. However, bear in mind that cosplay from the world of The Witcher (or at least something medieval-looking) would be most suitable. Such a costume will help you fit in. If you want to attend the cosplay contest, however, we only accept Witcher-inspired costumes. You don’t have to register in advance if you’re not a contestant. We will be happy if you put on a costume, but you don’t have to make any special effort. Just bring it.

I’m handicapped. Is the object barrier-free?

The object has several floors, there is gravel outside and the sleeping hall is located some 700 m away. If you are wheel-chair bound, you will need a personal assistant and bear in mind you probably won’t be able to enjoy the programme in the upper hall (3^rd floor). There is no barrier-free access to the upper floors, but there are barrier-free toilets on the ground level. If you are prepared to attend despite perhaps not being able to enjoy the programme fully, we will gladly have you there. And we will help you should you need it. It would be best if you could tell us about your handicap in the form when purchasing the tickets or send this information in an additional email.

I would like to arrange my own food at the con, for example buy it in the town. Is it possible?

We don’t force anyone to eat what we offer, so you can of course arrange your food according to your wishes and needs. However, we do ask of you: do not consume your own food inside the inn and in the upper hall. Inside the inn, it is a decency to consume only food from the inn. If you have some special dietary requirements or limitations, you can eat wherever you want. It is absolutely fine for a celiac to have their own food and consume it inside the inn.

Is there a place for me to leave my personal stuff?

There will be two such places, but both are common. Therefore, if you have any valuables (wallet, cell phone, etc.), have them on your person. You can leave clothes and stuff you don’t worry about in the sport hall (you will not have access to it during the day) or inside the Housův mlýn, where there will be an unguarded dressing room available.
