Anyone who doesn’t already have an event ticket may join a waitlist on a first-come, first-served basis. You can join as an individual, or as a Nintendo Account family group of up to six people total per waitlist group.
If your name is selected from the waitlist, you will be notified via email sent to the email address associated with your Nintendo Account.
You’ll have 36 hours to claim the offer before the opportunity expires. Please be sure to add no-reply@noa.nintendo.com to your safe sender list, and check your email account’s Junk, Spam, or Promotions folder regularly.
No. If your name wasn’t drawn to receive a ticket, you’ll need to manually enter the waitlist.
There are several possible reasons:
Tickets may become available if others cancel the ticket(s) they received from the original draw.
If you are on a waitlist, we will notify you via email if an offer is available.
We will only contact you via email if you are offered a ticket from a waitlist, and you will have 36 hours to claim the offer before the opportunity expires. Therefore please be sure to add no-reply@noa.nintendo.com to your safe sender list, and check your email account’s Junk, Spam, or Promotions folder regularly.
We encourage you to enter your name(s) on a waitlist as soon as possible. We reserve the right to close any waitlist several weeks before the event, for instance if a waitlist is longer than the number of expected available tickets.
If you can no longer attend the event, please cancel your waitlist entry so we can offer it to the next person in the waitlist.
To cancel your waitlist entry, please visit your “My Tickets / Passes” page via the registration page: go to “My Tickets / Passes,” open the “Waitlist” tab, and select “Leave Waitlist” from the menu.
You can always come back and rejoin a waitlist if you wish, though please note that you will join at the back of the queue, not at your previous position in the waitlist.
Yes. Please note that reserving a ticket will remove you from other waitlists, as you can only register for one session.
No. Whichever waitlist becomes available first will be the first to be offered, and you will not receive any other offers until you have accepted or rejected the first ticket offer, or until that offer has expired.
No. If you have a ticket for one of the events, you cannot add your name to a waitlist. If you prefer, you can cancel your ticket and join the waitlist for your preferred day/time, but there is no guarantee that you will receive a ticket offer from that waitlist.
On the registration portal, go to "My Tickets / Passes" and open the “Waitlist” tab. Select “Edit your Waitlist” from the menu. This will not affect your position on the waitlist.
If you pass on a ticket offer, the offer will go to someone else on the waitlist. You can rejoin a waitlist to see if another opportunity comes up.
Once the offer expires after 36 hours, the ticket will be offered to the next person in the waitlist. You can rejoin a waitlist to see if another opportunity comes up, though please note that you will join at the back of the queue, not at your previous position in the waitlist.
If you joined a waitlist as an individual and would like members of your Nintendo Account family group to join, you will need to leave the waitlist and rejoin with your family group. Please note that you will join at the back of the waitlist.
Anyone under 18 will need to join a waitlist as part of a family group.
Your offer will be for the same number of tickets as you originally requested. That means that if you are part of a group of six people, you will only be notified if another group of six people cancels their tickets or drops out of the waitlist. You will not be offered tickets in smaller batches (e.g. four tickets and then two additional tickets later).
