About the Artist Alley
The Artist Alley is for amateur and professional artists to promote and sell their original artwork at Magicon. What is being sold at their booth can vary; art prints, keychains, plushies, jewellery, clothing, 3D-printed objects, and much more!
Are you interested in Tabling at our Artist Alley at Magicon Vanguard? Then read on!
We continue the success from our previous events where artists will need to apply to be eligible to have a Table at our convention. A committee chooses which artists are offered a Table. There are currently 70+ tables available, but this might be increased, depending on security restrictions at the venue.
Once your application is approved you will be able to purchase an Artist Alley Pass. You can either buy a solo table or a table with two chairs, one for you and one for a helper.
For more information and guidelines, and to apply, scroll down the page.
We recommend reading all the information to give your application the best chance of being accepted.

Your responsibilities:
We require the Table to be staffed during the entire opening hours each day.
Magicon is not responsible for any theft from your Table, but we will work with you if any incidents occur.
We will provide you with all the information you need about rigging before the event.
If your application is accepted:
You have to send the payment for the Artist Alley Pass to the bank account (or Vipps) provided in the confirmation email within the specified deadline.
Failing to do so will immediately free up your spot to be given to the next in line.
Cancellation:
After payment is confirmed, we will not reimburse you if you cancel. The only exception to this is if we are able to replace your stand in time for the convention. Unfortunately, you can’t resell your ticket because we have an application process for the Artist Alley.
Helper/Partner rules:
If you select a Table-ticket with a helper, you can only have one person as your helper/partner. The helper has to be the same person both days. The person you choose as your helper/partner must be confirmed by the specified deadline date.
How we select artists:
Magicon heavily relies on our values in every decision we make. The ones that relate to choosing artists are: Professionalism, Inclusion and Innovation. Keep this in mind when telling us about yourself in the “Why we should choose you” section of the application form.
Communication:
All communication between you and Magicon will go through our Discord server, which you will be invited to after your application is accepted. We do this as there is a large number of artists to communicate with and many have the same questions. We piloted this approach last year with great success.
Please note: The venue was built in the 1960s, long before modern accessibility requirements were a thing. This unfortunately means that a handful of tables will not be fully wheelchair accessible. We have tried to find a workaround for this, but have been unsuccessful.
