Community Event Pre-registration is now live! | 04.07.2015, 09:07 PM
Hey folks,
I wanted to tell you about our new Cantina pre-registration page! You can find the page and some more details on it here. However, let me give you the TLDR on the perks of pre-ing for our Cantinas:
- If you pre- and attend the Cantina, you are eligible for a pre-registrant exclusive swag drawing!
- If you pre- and then redeem that Cantina exclusive pack code, you will receive an additional in-game reward.
- Pre-registrants will get priority access to the Cantina (you get in first!)
- Note: RSVPing on Facebook does not count as pre-ing, you must do it through this new page.
You can also see all of our currently update those with the specifics of each event as we have it! Thanks everyone, see you at the Cantina.

But what about our friends who have no SWTOR or forgot to pre-? Will they still be able to get priority access and enter with me or do they have to wait until regular access?
At least for now we are going to require that anyone who comes through the pre-registration line did in fact pre-.

On our side of things the code you redeem if you attend, vs the the link you share afterwards are two different things. Meaning pre-ing and redeeming the code from attending is the only thing that will count for the extra reward!

We will be checking names and email addresses at the event!

We are actually streaming our Cantina event from SW Celebration, so you can tune in! Nothing wrong with a little extra for those who attend though

It is very rare that we hit venue capacity as we try to leave a lot of buffer. However, if for some reason we have a ton of pre-registrations and they are more numerous than our capacity, we could turn people away. It does not guarantee entry. I will reiterate though, we have never had this happen. Celebration could certainly though, our room is huge but so is our attendance!
