Offsite / Onsite Admission http://www.comic-con.org/cci/member-id http://www.comic-con.org/cci/purchase-badges You must first register a member ID at the Comic-Con website. Once you have that, you can log in when badges go on sale, whenever that is. Be warned, once badges go on sale, they will sell out fast. And now that registration is randomized, you're gonna be hosed. OPEN REGISTRATION was FEB 20 AT 9AM. Badges sold out in 57 minutes. Pre-Registration http://www.comic-con.org/cci/2014-cci-badge-preregistration Pre-registration was open to everyone who paid to go to Comic-Con in 2015. You probably didn't get your tickets 2016 Pre-reg was 11/14/2015. Badges sold out in 67 minutes. Watch this educational video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07z59DUl5sk Here's some tips on getting in
Preview Night: $40.00 - $20.00 senior/junior/military Thursday: $55.00 - $27.00 senior/junior/military Friday: $55.00 - $27.00 senior/junior/military Saturday: $55.00 - $27.00 senior/junior/military Sunday: $40.00 - $20.00 senior/junior/military Total: $245 - $121 senior/junior/military Children 12 and younger are free with paying adult. Register your kid onsite for a child badge. Children 13-17 need a member ID to buy a Junior badge. Seniors start at 60. Volunteers http://www.comic-con.org/cci/volunteers Volunteer for 3 hours and you get to spend the rest of the day at Comic-Con. If you were a volunteer last year, you're probably already signed up. Professionals http://www.comic-con.org/cci/professionals 2016 Pro registration happens on 2/1. Pros had to get in line via the same system as regular registration for guest passes. 2015 Guest passes sold out in 27 minutes. Press http://www.comic-con.org/cci/press Don't want to go anymore? Return your pass here. There is now a 10% handling fee. Badge Pick Up Badges are mailed this year. Pickups available international attendees. Hotels http://www.comic-con.org/cci/hotels Hotel registration is April 5. Registering a hotel via Comic-Con gets you a discounted rate. However, it's really hard to get a room. They have a lottery system and most people get hosed over. If you stay at a Comic-Con partner hotel, they'll likely have a shuttle to take you and your tired feet back and forth from the convention center. If you don't want to chance it with the lottery, you should have booked your arrangements last July already. You might get lucky if you can find a vacation rental. Another option is sharing a bathroom with 10 people at a hostel. Here's a fan's guide to hotels you'll wish you were staying at while dodging roaches at your motel in Chula Vista http://crazy4comiccon.wordpress.com/2011/03/01/how-to-pick-a-hotel-for-sdcc/ Parking Wanna sleep in your car? Or maybe you're a local. Or you like using your car for storage for all your swag and Chewbacca costume. Here's some parking tips: Due to constructions, there will be a lot less downtown parking this year. The lot next to Hotel Solamar is gone as well as some space next to Petco Park. http://www.comic-con.org/cci/parking You cannot just show up and park close by anymore. The past few years, Comic-Con offered pre-orders thru Ace Parking for some nearby parking lots. http://www.aceparking.com/comic-con/ Convention parking will be $15 per day. Other places will be $20-$30 per day. Keep in mind the parking garages will close around 2AM and reopen around 5AM. Parking between those hours is prohibited. Be sure to have a hard copy of your parking pass. If you have a hotel, you could probably park there as well. While there are lots of parking lots throughout downtown San Diego, studios have been hogging some of them up to put on their own events. Some of the better options are the Park It on Market structure on Market St between 6th and 7th. Map and the 6th and K Parkade Map Or try out Zirx valet service. Here's an overview If you still can't get parking, try Old Town or Fashion Valley and taking... Public Transportation & Trolleys If you are flying in and staying far outside of downtown and don't want to pay an arm and a leg for taxis, consider the trolley and bus systems. Buy a multi-day transit pass of some sort. They are pretty affordable. But, you will spend a great deal of time riding around. There are three major trolley lines that cover different parts of the county and eventually intersect in a few places. The green line comes from the north, the orange from the east, and the blue from the south. The blue and orange lines both go downtown. If you take the green line you will be required to hop onto the blue line in order to finish the trip downtown. If you're coming from Los Angeles, take the Amtrak. On the ride in you get to watch dumb drunk white folk in funny hats go to the Del Mar races. On the way back, you can get drunk and look at all the suckers gridlocked on the 5. On Sunday after the con is over, be sure to get to the train station an hour or more early, the lines are LONG. If you're gonna take the bus, check your phone. There's probably an app for that. Maps, timetables, and more information at http://www.sdmts.com/ Comic-Con will have shuttle service to and from the convention center for many of their hotel partners. See the map and schedules here http://www.comic-con.org/cci/shuttles New for 2015 is DecoBike. You can rent a bike for 30 minutes from many stations around downtown SD. The best deal seems to be $35 for a week's worth of bike rental. Never take a pedicab. They will rip you off. Sponsored pedicabs are often free. Free hours are usually 9am to 6pm. After that, find a regular cab, bus, Comic-Con shuttle or walk. Last year had free Uber rides as well. TIPS and general info to ensure you enjoy the con to its full potential and not die --Comic-Con is a marathon. Pace yourself. --Don't lose your badge. Your badge will have RFID. You will be scanned when you enter the Exhibit Hall and programming rooms. If your badge doesn't scan, go to registration in the Sails Paviliion to get it fixed. --BUDGET! Decide how much money you're going to spend before you attend, or you could be sorry. --Cash is a necessity. ATMs inside the convention center always have never-ending lines. I've never used one, but I imagine the service fees are fairly lovely as well. Get your cash beforehand! Luckily, more and more exhibitors take cards each year. However, don't depend on that. There are plenty of ATMs and banks in the Gaslamp, so fin your bank and stock up there. --Follow the 6/2/1 rule. Try for at least 6 hours of sleep. Eat 2 very good meals, and get 1 shower a day. --Some hotels have free breakfasts. Others have breakfast buffets. Make use of them. --Deodorant! Deodorant! Deodorant! --Seriously, people show up smelling like they have never bathed their entire life. Don't be that guy. No Axe products please. --Start walking now. Seriously, get a regime going. You can cover a good 5-10 miles in a day at the Con. Anyone whose been there have seen the causalities dropping outside the main hall from exhaustion. Toughen up and condition yourself for the big walk. --Wear walking/running/cross country shoes and good socks. You could quickly find yourself in pain if you don't equip your feet properly. For a lot of people, this is the most walking they'll do all year, hah. --Fresh gel insoles for your shoes. --Wear for comfort. Loose clothing is a good idea. Cosplay Magnum PI for max comfort. --Powder. Get some baby powder or gold bond and put it everywhere. Blisters and rashes are no fun. --Don't do shrooms --Knock up your gf/wife in January or February. --Make use of the footbridge over by Petco Park. Especially useful when the late night freight train takes 30 minutes to pass. --Don't forget to pick up the daily update newsletter, found throughout the lobby of the convention center. Any changes, corrections and additions to the programming will be listed in this. Very important. --Always loving triple check where your camera is whenever leaving or entering a room: I don't care if it's always around you neck, check it anyways. Bring a backpack! Even if you don't plan on buying much, you very well may get caught up in the insanity, say "gently caress it" and end up doing so. And even if you do have self-control, you could still end up with a poo poo ton of free items. It's easy to get weighted down in no time. Carrying a heavy bag all day could be hell on your hands and arms. If you really don't feel like bringing a backpack, Comic Con will give you complimentary big bag (that are like three and a half feet deep and can be worn like a giant man purse or sometimes as a backpack). Or get one from from Tokyopop, Dark Horse or others. They always seem to be offering them. Rolling backpacks/suitcases/trolleys are not allowed on the floor. Things you should have in your bag
Here's Comic-Con's rules for overnight camping
--Here's the breakdown for line camping in 2015. --There are two lines: one for Hall H, one for everything else (that includes Ballroom 20 and the Exhibit Hall). --The line to Hall H starts at the east end of the convention center and can wind up all the way out in Seaport Village. Lines start the --Security will randomly condense the line at any time of the night. Be prepared to pack up your area quickly. --Around 6am, the line will really condense as the tents clear up from the Exhibit Hall line. --There was one line for getting into everything inside the Convention Center. The line will start around Hall E. It will lead over to the tents at Hall H and begin to snake around there. Around 6am, this line will go inside the convention center and up the escalators. --From here the line breaks out to the Ballroom 20 line, the Sails Pavilion (for exclusives or autographs), the meeting rooms and the Exhibit Hall. The Exhibit Hall line starts at the escalators over Hall G and leads around the hallway towards Ballroom 20. Around 9:15, the line will open everyone can go down to the Exhibit Hall. --If you try to get in via the front, you will still be forced to go in at Hall E and up the escalators. If you head towards the down escalators near Hall C, you will be turned away. You will also notice tape blocking off the stairs. At 9:20, this tape will come down. This doesn't give you much, if any, of an advantage over those entering via Hall G. Exhibit Hall --If you're hunting exclusives, make a plan. Study the exhibit hall map so you're not going back and forth. --Some exclusives will require you getting a ticket upstairs at the Sails Pavilion. You need to be there at 8am, so camp the line. --Tickets for autographs are also given away at the Sails Pavilion. Again: 8am, camp. --If you missed that limited edition Pinkie Pie you had your heart set on, try again the next day. Vendors set aside a certain amount so they can sell them each day. The biggest allotments are typically on Saturday. --What? That's stupid advice. Your best bet for exclusives is obviously Preview Night. --Preview Night is crazy. Tickets are not required, so exclusive hunters are in line at 8am, if not earlier. --Some booths will have a different freebie item for each day at the convention. Marvel, Cartoon Network and Lionsgate are the prime examples. --Like posters? Get a postertube in advance, especially one that is telescopic. Don't count on the giveaway tubes like the ones at the Fox booth, they may be tiny. --Nearly every booth will have a line. Ask around to find the end. Don't form a mob. Most lines will be capped. Hang out at a nearby booth and be ready to jump in line when it opens. --Keep moving if you find yourself in a mob. Move to the side if you're trying to take a picture. --If you want good photos of the booths, hang out right before the exhibit hall closes when the floor is less packed. --Prices will drop on Sunday all over the exhibit floor. Some booths start dropping their prices on Saturday. They don't want to lug all their poo poo back home and are set on selling it. The hot items could sell out before any price drops, though. --Visit the independents and spend some money. Sometimes the phrase 'starving artist' isn't just a phrase. --DON'T TRUST THE BOOTH WORKERS IF YOU WANT TO GET AN AUTOGRAPH FROM A SPECIAL GUEST. 90% of the time they want you out of the way and will say anything. --Sometimes they will hand out special passes to get autographs...keep your eyes open for these. --Make use of the bag check. Located in the lobby for when you can't haul all your stuff. --Comic-Con's rules for cosplay: http://www.comic-con.org/cci/costumes --Be nice to the cosplayers...compliment the good ones and ask for a picture before taking it. Thank them as well. Or watch this educational video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2Df2AihAao The Programming Rooms --Hall H is where the big poo poo goes down. Hollywood basically plants itself there for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Studios do some big reveals at their Hall H presentations and often show exclusive footage nobody else will see before a film's release. --They do not clear the room after each event. People leave as they wish. So even if you are 1000th in line to a room that holds 6500 or so, you may not get in to the panel you want to see. --For a nearby fix, there's a Starbucks across the street at the Hilton Bayfront. Be ready for another long line. The Hilton has some other stores and typically a food stand out front as well. --Kevin Smith usually does a 90 to 120 minute Q&A in Hall H on at the end of Friday or Saturday. --The big studios never show up on Sunday, so television programming takes over. Don't expect the lines to be any shorter. --Ballroom 20 seats about 4200 and is the next biggest room and is basically there for all the huge poo poo they couldn't squeeze into a time slot for Hall H. Network TV shows usually have their panels here. --The line for Ballroom 20 starts near the center of the convention center on the upper floor. It leads along the East Terrace, snakes around outside under some tents and then back down a giant staircase. Last year Ballroom 20 featured the longest lines. Look at these freaking lines: --The Masquerade is held here Saturday night around 8PM. This is the big show where people show off their costumes and maybe perform a dance or skit. You actually need a ticket to get into this. If you plan on attending, be prepared to wait in yet another very long line. The crazies start lining up first thing Saturday morning and it appears to get worse every year. People will walk the line later in the day and hand you tickets around 2PM. If you missed out, there is a viewing area in the Sails Pavilion with snacks if you still want to watch. Also, there is always a rave afterwards. While this caters to the under 18 crowd, booze is sold for the older folk. If you want to be in the Masquerade: http://www.comic-con.org/cci/masquerade If you qualify for the Masquerade, arrangements can be made for you to purchase a pass There are prizes out the wazoo and include 4-day badges for next year's Comic-Con. --The Indigo Ballroom seats about 2500. It is located out east beyond Hall H at the Hilton Bayfront. The line often goes outside the back entrance along the boardwalk. Head straight there instead of going to the front entrance to line up for early programming. --Television panels are here as well. Adult Swim camps out the room on Fridays. --Room 6 is on the west end of the upper floors. Programming is divided into 3 rooms. The big one seats 2000, the other two about 500. Programming is more hosed up than the bigger rooms, since some programs with massive fanbases could get lumped in here, so be ready for big lines. The lines get split up as they head outside. --Comics, animation and cable television make up the bulk of the programming in these rooms, although you could be sitting in for a panel about gay vampires in literature. --Typically, the better of Comic-Con's night programming is held here, including Kung Fu marathons, Worst Cartoons Ever, Klingon lifestyles, and Spike & Mike's Sick and Twisted programs. --The Marriott Marina hosts Comic-Con events as well. The lobby has a Starbucks. Upstairs has the gaming room for your Magic & D&D addiction, a Con Suite with free snacks and sodas and a films room. Nintendo usually has a big room to itself next to the lobby. At the far west you can find the Fulfillment Room to redeem your swag tickets as well as the anime screening rooms. --The Hyatt also has events. Go outside past the Marriott Marina. You'll find the Xbox game lounge there. Panel tips --Remember, rooms do not require clearance between panels and people are welcome to camp out as long as they wish. --Plan your day. You wont get to see everything you want, so be realistic. --Comic-Con will put up a page, with corresponding mobile app, for people to mark down what panels they want to see. This should give you an idea of how popular a panel will be. Plan against this. --You will have to camp the previous event or two, even if they don't interest you, just to be on the safe side. --Check twitter. Searches for #HallHline or #Ballroom20 will give you an idea of how long the lines might be. --Once you're inside a room for a panel remember these things:

The prices are steep and the food is lame. The quantities aren't even good. Downtown San Diego is full of choices in all price ranges. Something for everyone. Download and/or print out this map of the Gaslamp District. It is a list of everywhere to spend your money. http://www.gaslampmap.com/uploads/5/1/1/1/51119583/gaslamp_2016_foruc_2sided.pdf Ralph's | Map Make the most of your money and shop at the Ralph's, a brief walk from the convention center or your downtown hotel. Either hoard up on preview night or make this your first stop every day. There's a full service deli, salad bar, hot foods and plenty of ready to go items. You can find everything you need, and for good prices. You can get a whole meal at their deli for what it costs to get a goddamned PRETZEL at the convention center, and it's not crap food either. It's also the cheapest place to get booze. Open 24 hours, so come here if you're camping a line. $ Subway | Map Notable for being open 24 hours. Be wary of long lines. Relatively cheap, but this one inflates their prices compared to other Subways. $ Food Truck | Map Behind the convention center, this food truck shows up Thursday thru Sunday from 7am to 6pm. Usually found next to the elevator near where the Embarcadero meets Marina Park Way. Great for breakfast or lunch while you're stuck in a line. Sometimes they have Mexican Coke. Best alternative to con food if you don't want to travel far. $ Horton Plaza | Map Typical mall food for your penny pinching palette. Have fun getting lost in the levels as you try to get to the food court at the top. $ Seaport Village | Map Touristy spot with similar food options. Have your meal with a great view of the bay. $-$$ Headquarters | Map New touristy spot next to Seaport Village and the Hyatt. There's a somewhat hidden Starbucks here with normal prices. $-$$ Brian's 24 | Map 828 6th Ave between E and F. Best part is that is 24/7 OPEN all drat day. Think of it as a better Dennys. The only problem is that they check I.D after 11 o'clock and if you're not 21 they don't let you in sadly not to sure why, prob has to do to the fact they do sell liquor and beer there. $-$$ The Tin Fish | Map Across the street from the convention center, near the trolley station across the intersection from Lou & Mickey's. Varied seafood items, commonly served with really loving good fries, tartar sauce and other sides. Portions are huge and the food is super tasty. Go on Preview Night or Sunday afternoon, otherwise there will be massive crowds. $ Hodads | Map Burgers as big as your head. Right next to the 10th Avenue Theater. $ Fillipi's Pizza Grotto | Map The best Pizza in San Diego. Hands down. Huge, hefty, delicious. Recommended is meatball or sausage with onions and bell peppers. They also offer the usual variety of Italian cuisine. A bit far away, so make take a cab. $$ The Old Spaghetti Factory | Map It's back! Great atmospheric place that obviously serves great spaghetti, among many other Italian classics. Really good prices, really nice portions. Tough to beat that. The mizithra cheese and browned butter dish is great for those of you not big on classic red sauces. White clam sauce is great as well. Sausages and meatballs are very hearty. They do not take reservations or call-ahead and it's one of the most popular places downtown, so you may have to wait a bit for a seat. Pretty sure they have a bar now since re-opening a few months ago, so you can kill time there while waiting. $ Lou & Mickey's | Map Steakhouse and seafood located directly across the street from the convention center. One of the best restaurants I've ever been to, but it is very expensive. Semi-formal, but they're pretty cool and probably expect casual attire a lot during CCI week. $$$ La Fiesta | Map Mexican and margaritas. $-$$ Rei do Gado | Map People continuously approach your table with meat speared on hot stainless steel rods and a large knife. If you want some, they carve it on to your loving plate and you loving eat it. It's like being Denethor in Return of the King. You eat entire animals and know that elsewhere, people are dying. They have filet mignon wrapped in bacon. Pricey as gently caress. $$$$ Sultan Baklava | Map Turkish. Food is delicious, portions are generous, price is fair and the owners are super nice. $$ The Field | Map Authentic as gently caress Irish pub. The interior was literally shipped here from Ireland. An old pub was torn down and people pretty much broke it down into pieces and brought it here. You'll find a pint of Guinness poured finer here than anywhere else in the city. They also have food. Not as good as it used to be. $$ C-Level | Map Located on Harbor Island. Modern California cuisine and atmosphere. Slightly pricey, depending on who you ask. $15-$30 per entree. Get outdoor seating right on the water for a killer view of the bay bridge and the city's skyline. I recommend the crusted brie, lobster and truffle mac 'n' cheese, lobster and fontina BLT, Kobe beef burger, and the sorbet trio. $$$ The Noble Experiment | Map Hidden behind a burger/microbrew joint is this speakeasy style bar. Reservations must be made a week in advance. $12-$15 for some well crafted drinks. The Yard House | Map "World's Largest Selection of Draft Beers." They really do have a gently caress ton. And the staff are generally good at recommending you some nice ones based on your preferences, so talk to them. Killer food, too. Not the cheapest, though. Range is something like $10 - $30 for a vast selection of entrees. This isn't an institution exclusive to San Diego, but it's a unique quality experience nonetheless. $$ DO NOT GO to Kansas City BBQ. It was in Top Gun 30 years ago. So what. The food sucks and the beer is awful. BREAKFASTS: Richard Walker's Pancake House | Map Never been there myself, but everyone raves about it. If you're in the mood for breakfast dishes, this is the place to go in downtown San Diego. Get there early, there's always a line. $$ The Broken Yolk Cafe | Map- BIG food at small prices - American/Mexican Dishes. Absolutely one of the best places to get your breakfast grub on. And for you fit fucks, everything is made to order and can have healthier substitutes while still eating heartily. Oh yea, this was the place they featured on the MAN VS FOOD IRONMAN CHALLENGE. (It's a dozen egg omelet filled with mushrooms, onions, and American cheese, smothered with chili and more cheese, served on a 15 inch pizza pan with a generous pile of home fries and two biscuits in case you were wondering). gently caress Denny's, go here. Last year this place was taken over by The Hub. $ Cafe 21 | Map - Crazy lil place dedicated to serving unique but classic foods. Breakfast can be traditional or very nontraditional. Cast Iron Skillet Omlettes loaded with meats/seafood. Crepes, stuffed french toast. Oh and the best damned Bloody Mary's you will ever drink. $ RIP If anyone else has dining or drinking recommendations, speak up and I'll add it to this section. ----- Goon contact information For goonmeets, holding places in lines, announcing how cool a panel was, awesome merch scored or how long the line for starbucks is, etc. If anyone wants me to put their contact info here, I will do so. I won't list it without your consent (even if you include it in a post in the thread). So if you want to network with Goons at the con, include in your post that you want your info listed here. ----- So, that's it. I'll be updating the OP as more information becomes available. In the meantime, this is a great place for noobs to ask questions and for veterans to answer. If you have any helpful words, please speak up and I'll add them to the OP. Talk about meeting up, your plans, etc. And if you're exhibiting at the con, speak up so I can add your info to the OP. 99% of this is copy and pasted from last year, so not everything is accurate Nostalgic? 2015 2014 2013 2012 Dr Tran fucked around with this message at 17:22 on Jun 22, 2016 |

Wondercon! For the love of god and all that is holy: DO NOT PARK HERE Parking costs loving $30. While construction has taken away most of the nearby parking lots, there are still a few that charge $20 or less. The farther you go, the cheaper the parking gets. If you venture to the other side of the 110, you might find parking. Also, take the Metro. For Friday and maybe Saturday, find the vending machines outside (west) of the West exhibit hall for cheap drinks before they run out. Food options sucks. Con food is awful and the food truck lines are long. Go outside and get a hot dog from a street vendor. Dr Tran fucked around with this message at 23:52 on Feb 22, 2016 |

Satorr posted:This is great news. Any details on this? Did LA test the waters and not like it before it even started or was the move temporary because of scheduling conflicts with the Anaheim convention center? Also, LA wasn't available for March 31-April 2. Badge pick up was a breeze today.

Showed up 1 hour early for Bob's Burgers and got in. 10 minutes til the panel starts and the room looks 95%. They say there's a huge line outside. Probably need 2 hours for Saturday panels.

At the Wondercon talk back they said the hotel system would be different, I didn't think it would be this different. YIKES.

Hotel sale links have started to be circulated. Check your email.

The link doesn't seem custom to each person Having people still pick 6 hotels tells me it's not so much a lottery anymore.

All my downtown choices were available, despite getting 12000. Two in my group started with sub 2000, so I like our chances.
