When you register as a Sponsor (or better yet, Super Sponsor!), you get access to the Sponsors Lounge, where we'll have plenty of snacks available throughout the convention. If you joined us in previous years, we're unfortunately not able to offer the full breakfast, lunch, and dinner meals like we could in the past. But we will still have individually packaged snacks, hot appetizers, bottled water and soda available.

Additionally, after 6 PM the Sponsors' Lounge served a selection of complimentary adult beverages. The beverages are all locally sourced, all from around the Motor City region!
