I am considering going as a spectator. I live close to the venue so a flight isn’t necessary. Can anybody who has been to one in the past tell me about what happens on the spectator side? Is it like a compitition and a convention mixed into one? What is there to do in addition to watching the performances? ---

From what I can tell, yeah basically. It’s a super big, super fun, yoyo meet up for people from all over to do fun yoyo things. Also, LUCKY!!! ---

Worlds definitely has a great ‘convention’ feel! Everyone who attends is there because they love yoyo. You will find people hanging out, super friendly, trading yoyos, trading tricks, etc. Plus there are vendors so you can try out stuff and then meet pros and watch the next world champion get named. It’s really exciting to watch the finals in person too - really high energy! Definitely worth the trip! ---

One important question we all have about the World YoYo Contest in Cleveland is… As a spectator what does it cost to hang-around the “convention like” atmosphere and watch all the competitions? Is there a one fee to enter the entire contest? Or is it pay-by-the-day? ---

I went to the link, I am a little slow. Does that mean you can’t pay admission at the door? ---

I’d guess that tickets will be for sale at the door if they don’t sell out. They sold out last year. ---

Thank you for the help. I guess I better just buy ahead of time. It’s about 7 hours for me to get there, that would be quite the gamble. ---

Can’t hurt to buy tickets in advance. Last year it sold out in China as the venue was pretty tight - this venue is a bit bigger so less chance of that happening. But still can’t hurt to register in advance! 😊 ---
