    Forged In Fire, Pawn Stars, and Ancient Aliens all offer their own “Ultimate Pass” for $350 each.

    Each ultimate pass includes all three days of the convention, an exclusive lanyard, priority lines and seating at their respected panels, and a photo session with the stars from the shows. They each also come with an exclusive poster and pin from the convention, as well as a 10% discount at the HISTORYCon Marketplace at the convention.

    Our only disappointment, is that fans of all three shows can’t purchase multiple Ultimate Passes options, at a discounted rating, since they won’t need multible three day badges.

    If you wait to purchase your tickets until the new year, then be warned, Single Day General tickets will go up $10 each ($89 and $99), the Three Day Pass will go up $51 ($250), and the “Ultimate Passes” will go up $100 each ($450).

    But right now, if you arrive in time, tickets are still on sale, so head Here to get your tickets!
