LEFT COAST CRIME INFO:

Registration: Early registration will open on Wednesday from 3:00–6:00 PM. The registration table will be open beginning at 8:00 AM on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, and remain open for most of the day for registration and to answer any questions.

Materials: When you register you will receive an envelope with your name tag, LCC Awards ballot, and your banquet ticket. In addition, you'll receive a book bag with a Name Tag Holder, the Program, a Pocket Program that will fit inside your Name Tag Holder, and of course several books. Please wear your Name Tag at all times during the convention. It is your ticket into all the events and helps us all get to know each other.

Don’t be shy! Introduce yourself to those sitting next to you at a panel, standing in line to get a book signed, browsing in the Book Room, drinking in the bar, or enjoying a cup of coffee in the Hospitality Room and share your passion for the mystery/thriller genre!

There are many official and 'unofficial' events inside and outside. Be sure and come to the Opening Reception, movie night, Guest of Honor talks, panels, and a few other 'noir-ish' events.
