Hello guys!
Here we are with the awaited news about next year convention date and passes.
JIBCON 5 will be held one weekend in the second half of May 2014 and you will be able to book passes since SATURDAY JUNE 15TH 2013.
There will be 2 different starting hours:
1) FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN JUS IN BELLO ASSN. SUPPORTERS IN THESE PAST 2 YEARS (JIBCON 3 OR JIBCON 4 PARTICIPANTS OR ANYBODY WHO'VE SENT US A SIMPLE DONATION IN 2012 OR 2013):
booking time will start at 02.00pm (Rome timezone) and you will have 1 hour of priority over everyone else.
You will be able to send your request by email only and to show our appreciation for your kindness and support, we've decided that you'll be entitled to book also 1 pass for 1 friend who's never been at JIBCON and want to join you.
Also should you decide to split your contribution in installments we'll grant you a very special plan!
We will explain everything in detail in the next couple of weeks.
2) FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE NOT BEEN JUS IN BELLO ASSN. SUPPORTERS IN THESE PAST 2 YEARS:
booking time will start at 03.00pm (Rome timezone).
From 03.00pm on everyone will be able to request a pass sending an email or using the website form until all places have been assigned.
Pass types will be again:
ANGEL PASS
DEMON PASS
SINNER PASS
HUNTER PASS
and PROPHET PASSES (the few VIP passes granting 1st row and meet&greet that will be released in the next months as usual).
All pass features will be the same as this year, but don't worry, we will release detailed descriptions for all of them and for booking procedures in the next weeks.
ABOUT REFUNDS FOR JARED'S PHOTO OPS/EXTRA AUTOGRAPHS/MEET&GREET we will contact by email in the next few weeks those of you who've brought their photo op/extra autograph/meet&greet postcards back at the reception desk during JIBCON 4 asking for refund. You will be able to use the determined credit as deposit for JIBCON 5 or we will send you back the money with a wire transfer (if you prefer another method you will have to ask and we will see if we can work that out).
ABOUT DIGITAL COPIES OF YOUR PHOTO OPS we will make them available around mid-July so please be patient for a bit longer, thanks!
Thank you for cherishing and supporting JIB! And stay tuned because news about guests may be coming soon!
Love
JIBCON Staff
THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERYONE!
This year more than ever we want to say a HUGE THANKS to everyone who has been part of JIBCON 4!
It's been one of the most amazing and revealing experience we could have ever hoped for and we really don't know who to thank first.
You guys as fans of Supernatural and JIB supporters... well you have been WONDERFUL! The most polite, sympathetic and respectful crowd we've have ever had since the very first time we've done this. Everyone in the staff and among guests has been so totally impressed by how understanding and gracious you've behaved all weekend long helping create an atmosphere of friendliness and intimacy.
And this despite the sorrowful news concerning Jared absence.
Fans, guests and people in the staff, we were all shocked about what was happening, worried and concerned for Jared and Genevieve and sad because they couldn't be with us but instead of personal and petty considerations we've all done our best to create a united front and this has paid off during the whole weekend!
We always say that JIBCON is special because we have the most incredible supporters and you've proven this once more with flying colours! So really thank you guys!
And we're sure you want to join us in sending our love, thoughts and prayers to Jared and Genevieve in this difficult moment. We're all distracted by so many things in our lives that sometimes we forget what is really important until something painful happens and it reminds to us that family and loved ones always should come first.
Another big thank you goes to all the people serving as staff. This year you've worked harder, longer and with more devotion to JIBCON than we could have hoped for. You've tried your best to be helpful and make everyone have fun. You've been patient when need called for it and you've gone the extra length to ensure that everyone could feel part of this big JIBCON family. And considering all the thank you messages we've received so far your efforts have been appreciated and recognized.
Thank you for everything and for sticking with us, and caring for us and everyone there especially when things seemed on the verge of crumbling on Friday night. We wouldn't have make it without you! You've made us proud and we are honored to have you all as friends!
And finally but only because this deserve to be addressed properly THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEART TO OUR SPECTACULAR GUESTS.
Your willingness to help facing the unforeseen trouble, your thoughtfulness for everyone's feelings, your incredible support and care have made a HUGE difference in how everyone –fans and staff alike- have lived through JIBCON 4. You've made this past weekend into an unforgettable and unique experience and we all respect and love you even more now!
THANK YOU JENSEN!
THANK YOU MISHA!
THANK YOU BROCK! THANK YOU JASON!
THANK YOU MATT! THANK YOU RICHARD!
THANK YOU ROB! THANK YOU SEBASTIAN!
THANK YOU STEVE! THANK YOU TY!
So doing a JIBCON 5 is our way of showing gratitude for all you've done! And we will give you news about it and everything else soon.
Love
Daniela
