===Exhibit hall=== [[File:MegaCon 2010 - Video Games (4571411309).jpg|thumb|Video gaming at MegaCon 2010]] MegaCon since 2012 has had an exhibit hall sectioned into many different sections listed below: <ref>{{cite web |title=MegaCon Floorplan 2023 |url=https://fanexpohq.com/megaconorlando/floor-plan/ |website=Mega Convention |publisher=Wayback Machine |access-date=19 October 2023 |archive-date=28 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230328040922/https://fanexpohq.com/megaconorlando/floor-plan/ |url-status=bot: unknown }}</ref> <br>'''Ticket Hall:''' The ticketing hall is where attendees pickup their badges required for attendance or buy new tickets. The lines are separated by ticket type. Past the ticketing booths is the show waiting area where attendees await the show's opening hours. The MegaCon store is in this area and sells convention themed merchandise as well as convention exclusives. <br>'''Retail:''' The retail section is home to shops numbering in the hundreds. This section is often subdivided into comics and anime sections. A small section "Tattoo Alley" is home to several [[tattoo]] vendors. While a majority of the businesses are small, some larger vendors also appear with more frequent ones including [[NASA]] and [[New Holland Brewing Company|Dragon's Milk]].<ref>{{cite news |last1=Thompson |first1=Amy |title=Hit MegaCon Orlando's first beer garden, get a chocolate fix this weekend |url=https://www.orlandosentinel.com/2022/05/20/hit-megacon-orlandos-first-beer-garden-get-a-chocolate-fix-this-weekend/ |access-date=20 October 2023 |agency=Orlando Sentinel |date=20 May 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Gavin |first1=Michael |title=PHOTOS: MegaCon 2016 – Super shopping with mega-diversity |url=https://insidethemagic.net/2016/06/photos-megacon-2016-super-shopping-with-mega-diversity/ |access-date=8 January 2024 |agency=Inside the Magic |date=6 June 2016}}</ref> <br>'''Artist Alley:''' A section where several hundred artists are given a booth to sell their wares. This section is surrounded by a ring of comic book guests ranging from independent publishers to writers for [[DC Comics|DC]] and [[Marvel Comics|Marvel]]. <br>'''Community:''' The community section is home to life-size replica exhibits from many fan organizations including the [[501st Legion]], [[Rebel Legion]], Daleks of Florida, the 405th, and the Delta Fleet. These groups often raise funds for local charities via voluntary donations or paid photo ops. <br>'''Celebrity:''' Actor guests of MegaCon have booths in this area. The booths form a ring that is empty in the center to allow for longer lines for the more popular stars attending the convention. A separate area adjacent is used for photo ops of more popular celebrities. <br>'''Food Courts:''' Multiple areas of the show floor and lobbies contain food courts with food options provided by the convention center. Cuisine options often include: [[American Chinese cuisine|Chinese]], [[Papa John's]], [[Barbecue in the United States|barbecue]], [[Starbucks]], [[Häagen-Dazs]], and [[Tex-Mex]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Centerplate Retail Concepts |url=https://view.publitas.com/orange-county-convention-center/centerplate-retail-concepts/page/1 |website=Publitas |access-date=20 October 2023}}</ref>
