First time attending SDCC. My only con experience is attending AX every year since 2017. Anything I should know that may be different?

First time attending SDCC. I have the experience from AX like what items to bring to survive. Anything different about SDCC I should know before attending?

Question about Comic Con App

I'm trying to log into the comic con app, and I am not having any luck with my Comic Con portal member ID and password. Am I using an incorrect username and password? Or is this login just not currently available?

Do attendees hand stuff out?

Do people just randomly hand out bracelets or buttons, etc? I saw this a little at Wondercon. My teen has a button maker and was thinking of handing out buttons he made.
Wasn’t sure if this was a big thing at SDCC, it’s our first time.

Transportation within city to San Diego Comic Con

I’m staying at Ocean Beach for the con. Trying to decide if it’s easier/better to uber or to park at Old Town and take the train. Any thoughts? Will uber/lyft be surge pricing the whole time?

Comic Con, Bring Back the Commemorative Badge Boxes!

Definitely can’t wait for 2026 San Diego Comic Con but seemed Comic Con missed an opportunity for America’s 250 to bring back the commemorative badge boxes, which have not been around since the before times (i.e., pre-covid). Do you agree that these should be brought back?

I have a question about CreepIE Con in Ontario CA.

Does anyone know if Robert Patrick is doing any signings? Because my Uncle is going and I’m planning on giving him something for Robert to sign for me and the website doesn’t say anything about autographs. I’ve been told by a few friends that celebrities do autographs even if it’s not listed on the website. I really wouldn’t know any of this because I’ve never been to CreepIE Con before. So please let me know.

Since 2011 I've been crocheting little characters and leaving them for strangers to find at SDCC! Find little Skeletor and he's yours to keep!

Since 2011 I've crocheted little superheroes to scatter around San Diego Comic-Con for people to find! Skeletor is the latest addition to the SDCC 2026 adoption lineup! Find him, send me a photo of your new friend, and he’s yours to keep!

I’ll be updating my crochet blog, Instagram, Threads, and Twitter up until Comic-Con with new additions to the adoption lineup, and when I drop them at SDCC, I’ll post photo clues to their locations on social media!

I just ask you to do two things if you find one: 1) send me a photo of it as proof of its adoption, and 2) let me know where the little buddy's new home will be (each critter is tagged with my contact info and instructions on what to do if you find one!). I drop these little guys off knowing that there's a potential that people could just swipe them and never get back to me on it, but it doesn't make it any less disheartening when one goes missing. Join the hunt, and help me get my little guys happy homes!

NJ Nostalgia Con 07/11/2026

Hi everyone! I’ve never been to a comic con before and this is my first time going. I’ve been a huge fan of Grant since I was 14 years old.

I bought a photo op with Grant Gustin but he’s offering Selfies this time at the convention, which he normally doesn’t do.

I panic bought the photo op and want to switch to a selfie, any suggestions on what to do? Ive tried to get in contact with Nostalgia Con but haven’t heard back.

I’m having regrets buying the photo op, selfies are much more personal. Selfies are $100, Photo Ops are $135.

Camping out for SDCC?

First time goer. Should I plan to camp out for Hall H to make sure I get the best seats? I don’t mind it if I have to but I hear conflicting thoughts, some say it’s not allowed anymore, some say it’s not necessary, some say just get back in line Saturday morning by 6am, some say absolutely camp out if want to be near the stage …given Avenger’s Doomsday/Marvel being back this year I anticipate a lotttt of people, but idk maybe I’m overthinking it because IM a huge nerd and am only coming to SDCC for Marvel’s Hall H panel… we’ve still got about 3 weeks but I just want to plan accordingly either way.

When does SDCC typically update you on professional badge applications? Is it a rolling system?

As the image says, I applied on 9/17/2025. Any information would help!

After Hours Events at SDCC 2026

Hey all, my fiancé and I are lucky enough to be going to SDCC this year for Thursday through Saturday and are having a hard time finding fun after hours parties/events to go to. I know in the past there has been really fun themed free (or relatively cheap at least) parties such as the Shrek Rave and Minions, but I don’t see many of them going on this year. Does anyone know of any fun parties (public or private) happening?

Questions about MCM London

Hello! I have a few questions as someone who’s not from the UK and never been to MCM London. I’ve also only ever been to one other convention, so forgive me if some of these questions are common knowledge.

I’m considering travelling to London since a lot of Resident Evil guests got announced and I’m a huge fan!

When do you reckon tickets will sell out? I have some things in my personal life that I need settled before I can buy tickets. I’d be crushed to think I have loads of time just to see it’s sold out.

I read about pre-booking an autograph/photo session with a guest. Can I see which guests have pre-booking, and where can I pre-book?

How does it work with no pre-booking? Should I expect to stand in line all day? Is it even possible to meet multiple guests or should I prioritize one? I’d love to meet all from RE of course but I don’t want to set unrealistic expectations. Are the guests there all day?

Does it cost money to go to their panels as well if they have one? I read about reserving a seat but I’m wondering if it costs?

Thank you in advance!

Is it weird to give a guest actor art you made of their character??

I’m going to a con to see an actress from a show that changed my LIFE, but I can’t afford a picture or an autograph or whatever, so I was just going to say hello and thank her.

I also made some art of her character and I planned on printing it off at boots to give to her just to show I’m a fan I guess?? is that narcissistic or weird I don’t want to be a freaky fan

thank you
