Small update: I received confirmation yesterday that the Beyblade Pass will unfortunately not be implemented again this year. Therefore, to participate in this tournament, you'll have to purchase an AN Weekend or Saturday Pass. Information on how to do that can be found below:

However, if you want to support the WBO so we can host even better tournaments with even better prizes in the future, and participate in the BeyPoints ranking System in future tournaments, then you will need one! So, if you wish to purchase one at the tournament, that is still possible.
To participate in the tournament, you currently have a few options to gain entrance: a) a weekend pass or b) a day pass for Saturday at AN. Click here for information about online registration for ANIME NORTH 2013. Also, please note that children (ages 6-13) are admitted for half price.

According to their website, all Weekend Passes were sold out before the convention, and only 35% of the Saturday Day Passes were available on the day of the convention last year.
So if you plan on attending, I suggest that you purchase a pass
as soon as possible! Both the Weekend and Saturday passes grant you access not only to the tournament, but to the entire convention. You do not need a pass to enter the gaming area, where this tournament will most likely be held, regardless, you should support AN and not take any chances.
