Plan Your Trip!

Are Strollers Allowed?

Most strollers and rolling book carts are allowed in the Exhibit Hall. No side-by-side strollers or wagons are permitted. Due to space constraints and fire marshal regulations, strollers will not be allowed into workshops, but they may be parked in designated Stroller Parking Areas. Please do not leave valuables in strollers while parked.

I am already a THSC member. How do I get my free convention passes?

Can my children attend the workshops and visit the exhibit hall?

We love having children attend Convention! Children may attend workshops or shop with you in the exhibit hall. Unfortunately, we do receive complaints that parents with noisy babies/children did not leave sessions promptly when the children became a distraction. Parents, please be courteous to others in the workshop and step out if your child is being noisy.

Can I register additional relatives on my Convention registration?

Your registration is for you, your spouse or one grandparent, and your children living in your home only. This is not a multi-family registration. Every adult needs a registration.

Can I purchase a Convention registration for a friend using my discount?

No, you may use your member discount for your Convention registration only, because only one Convention discount is given per membership each year.

However, you can purchase a voucher for your friend and have it sent to their email. They will then a receive a code that allows them to use the voucher when purchasing their registration.

What about refunds?

As with many events, there are no refunds on Convention registration.

Do you offer exhibit hall-only passes?

Yes! We offer a shopping-only package. This package gives one person access to the exhibit hall only. It does not include special evening events and add-on options, such as (Teen Staff, Children’s Convention, etc.).

Do you offer single-day passes?

No, we offer full Convention registration and exhibit hall-only passes.

Do I need to purchase an additional registration for my spouse?

No, your general admission family package registration is for you, your spouse or one grandparent, and your children (ages 18 and under) living in your home.

Does registration include membership?

The registration fee does not include a THSC membership. However, if you want to become a THSC member, members do receive two free adult passes to both Conventions among many other discounts and benefits throughout the year!

What does a Convention registration include?

A general admission family package purchase is for you, your spouse or one grandparent, and your non-adult children living in your home for the entire three days of Convention and special evening events. It does not include the add-on programs such as Teen Staff, Kid’s Convention, New to Homeschool seminar, etc. Those items are separate from the family package.
