• 😎 Admission notes

■ Ticket holders (retail channel, group tickets, or tickets issued by the organizers) had to exchange their tickets for an admission wristband at the “Event Service Desk” during opening hours and wear it to enter. Once a ticket was validated or exchanged, it no longer carried entry or exchange eligibility. There was no limit on the number of entries and exits per day. The workshops (Building I) and salons (Building I) did not require a wristband.
■ Wristbands had to be worn throughout and were valid for entering and leaving the venue on the day only. Removing, damaging, or tampering with a wristband, or transferring it to another person, forfeited admission eligibility, with no reissue, replacement, or refund.
■ In indoor venues, pets had to be carried rather than set on the floor (guide dogs excepted), and dangerous or prohibited items could not be brought in. Hitting, touching, or climbing on exhibits or related facilities and equipment was prohibited, and any damage had to be paid for at cost.
■ No baggage storage was provided at the venue, and the organizers were not responsible for personal property losses. Attendees were asked to keep belongings and valuables safe.
■ Attendees were to follow the visitor routes and on-site staff instructions, and to queue in order when crowded. Staff throughout the venue maintained order. Anyone who noticed a suspicious person or unidentified object, found a lost item, or felt unwell was to notify nearby staff immediately for assistance.
■ Horseplay and running were prohibited in the venue, and food and drinks could not be brought into indoor venues. Smoking was prohibited throughout the Bottle Cap Factory grounds, and selling or reselling tickets in the venue was prohibited. Anyone whose improper behavior continued after being warned had to leave immediately with staff and could not object.
■ Attendees who left and wished to re-enter could queue at the entrance during opening hours with a valid wristband for the day. Opening hours were December 24, 12:00 p.m.–7:00 p.m., and December 25, 10:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.; entry closed 30 minutes before closing each day. Any changes to the hours and rules followed on-site announcements.
■ For matters not covered above, the organizers could revise, supplement, modify, or terminate the rules at any time.
