What we checked, and when
Read off the venue's own page on 2026-11-04.
Pensacon's site says 3-day and VIP passes are on sale and that prices rise through the year, but the pages read do not state a dollar amount.
Not confirmed: The price. The venue publishes none, so neither do we.
⚠️ Pass prices rise through the year, so the price is not listed here.
Single-day passes can only be picked up on the day.
Pensacon's Purplepass ticket page gives a Friday start of 12:00 PM with doors at 11:30 AM, while its FAQ still lists Friday hours of 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM, so check the Friday start before you go.
