Guest lineups are announced in waves and can change close to show day. This tracker links to organizer-controlled guest pages and distinguishes a confirmed 2027 announcement from a previous-year listing or an unannounced lineup.
As of September 12, 2026, the official ECCC and C2E2 guest pages say their 2027 announcements are still to come, while Katsucon lists its 2027 guests as TBA. Check the organizer page before buying a ticket for one appearance.
01
Key takeaways
Use these decisions to guide the detailed checks below.
- ECCC and C2E2 guest announcements remain pending in the pages checked.
- Katsucon lists its 2027 guests as TBA.
- A prior-year guest card is not a current-year announcement.
- Appearance day and access conditions need their own confirmation.

Current 2027 guest announcement status
Emerald City Comic Con says its 2027 guests will be announced in the future. C2E2 likewise says guest announcements are coming soon. Katsucon currently labels its 2027 guests TBA.
A page can contain cards or search snippets left from an earlier show while its headline says the new lineup is pending. We follow the organizer's explicit year label rather than treating every visible name as confirmed for 2027.
| Event | Observed 2027 status | Next check |
|---|---|---|
| ECCC | Guests to be announced | Official guest page |
| C2E2 | Announcements pending | Official guest page |
| Katsucon | TBA | Official homepage/guest information |
03
What counts as a confirmed guest
A guest is treated as confirmed only when the event organizer publishes the person's name for the 2027 event. Agency posts, fan accounts and old convention pages can help locate a lead, but they are not used as the final confirmation source.
Appearance day, panel access, autograph pricing and photo-op availability are separate facts. A confirmed guest is not automatically appearing every day or included with a general ticket.
04
How cancellations and schedule changes are handled
Guest appearances are subject to professional commitments, travel and health. When an organizer posts a cancellation, the original entry should be updated with a clear status and date rather than silently deleted.
Readers should recheck the official event schedule shortly before travel and again on the morning of the planned appearance.
05
Track the guest category you actually care about
Convention lineups commonly mix screen actors, voice actors, comic creators, authors, cosplay guests, musicians and industry speakers. Filtering by category is more useful than one undifferentiated list.
Creators may also want to watch professional artists and writers whose panels overlap with portfolio, publishing or independent-IP interests.
06
Tracker update and sourcing policy
This revision records a check made on September 12, 2026. It is not a continuously updated feed. Reopen the official source when an appearance affects a purchase or travel decision.
Where organizer statements conflict, use the clearest current-year announcement and ask for clarification if the conflict remains. Do not infer a cancellation from a temporary missing card or an inaccessible page.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does pending mean there will be no guests?
No. It means the checked source has not supplied a confirmed lineup for this tracker. Do not turn an absence of announcements into a claim that the event has no guests.
Can a fan post confirm a 2027 appearance?
Use it as a lead to the organizer’s current-year announcement. This tracker treats the organizer’s explicit information as the confirmation source.
Does a guest announcement include every day and activity?
No. Verify the appearance day and whether the specific panel, autograph or photo opportunity has its own access conditions.
How recent is this tracker?
The status table in this revision was checked September 12, 2026. Follow the official links for developments after that check.
