Summary
San Diego Comic-Con’s latest public guide highlights more than 20 off-site events across downtown, Petco Park and nearby venues for visitors without convention badges.
Free activations dominate the lineup, including Hulu Animayhem, Adult Swim on the Green, Nickelodeon’s slime-themed experience, a Percy Jackson Season 3 activation and multiple Petco Park fan zones.
Paid options widen the appeal beyond fandom booths, from the $24.50 Candy Land Café and $19 rooftop movies to the $95 Westgate Superhero Tea and 21-plus parties starting at $12.51.
Cultural and community programming also extends Comic-Con’s footprint, with Indigi-Con, Lumpia Con, Afrofuturism Lounge and a five-day comics conference for educators and librarians.
The guide underscores how Comic-Con now spreads citywide during July 22-26, turning San Diego into a broader festival of pop culture, food, art and nightlife.
