I've finally compiled a checklist with absolutely everything I have learned about going to convention this past eight years. It is an exhaustive list, complete with clothing tricks, money tips and a few product recommendations from this world traveler.
Please feel free to print out and use with your own teams, or use as a starting-off point to create your own checklist.

Wow. that's a LONG list, LOL. I would add to that list deodorant wipes as it can get very hot. And also a scarf that matches your outfit and to wear layers as I have found temperature at (European) Convention can fluctuate wildly - often hot mornings and freezing afternoons when somebody remembers to put the air con on! When my team travel to Convention we always include a bottle of wine (each!) and some plastic wine glasses. And I always take lots of snacks as the vegetarian option is not at all reliable (in France I got a lettuce baguette and a friend got nothing at all as they ran out). I've ruled out Convention this year for financial reasons but now I wish I was going!
