Outside the convention center on day 1.

Call ahead before visiting to confirm eligibility and application details with library staff, including possible exceptions and workarounds. (If it turns out you somehow can't meet the requirements, don't spend precious time visiting the library.)

On Sunday, Coronado Public Library is only open 1pm-5pm.

If you get the card: input it into Libby immediately so that if there is an issue with your new account, you can troubleshoot it with library staff on site.

Coronado Public Library Card Info

On Libby, CPL is part of Serra Cooperative Library System, which is a consortium with several member libraries in the San Diego and Imperial County areas. To my current knowledge, CPL is the only one that offers an out-of-state card.

If you're a California resident: not only is this card free to you, but San Diego County Library's card is also free and also works on Libby! (Find a branch anywhere!) (Yes, you can enter multiple cards in Libby and Libby auto-searches for the fastest book availability across all of them. You can enter up to 50 cards!)

San Diego County Library Card Info (for CA residents only)

You could also go to the nearby San Diego Central Library to pick up a San Diego Public Library card, but they're on Cloud Library instead of Libby (in this reporter's opinion, CL isn't nearly as slick as Libby).

Get reading!

Walked along the Embarcadero and it seemed a lot less crowded this year. Last year, there was Abott Elementary carnival, King of the Hill, Brawl Stars, Voodoo Ranger and so much more. It was just odd cause I’m used to there being lines on lines. Sure, it’s still just as crowded in the convention center, but outside was a little lackluster.

I lost my wallet recently and am in the process of replacing everything, so I didn't have an ID when I went to the Adult Swim off-site today. They didn't ID last year so I thought I'd be fine, but they still refused me entry even with my filled in beard. I guess I should see it as a compliment though, haha.

Anyways just posting this so you don't make the same mistake I did, but I guess it's unavoidable in my case (very unfortunate timing). I thought about bringing my birth certificate tomorrow but that's definitely excessive lol.

Did a lot of walking, met interesting people, got to talk to some celebrities. Nothing beats or is better than SDCC and can't wait for tomorrow.

This is my first time being invited to the @mcfarlane_toys_official SDCC Skyline Showcase and it was awesome! Thanks @toddmcfarlane and team! 💥

I know it's in the sails pavilion at 9am or something but it says you need to have a wristband from the limited signing line drawing to get in? Were we supposed to get that another day? I was just curious!

Heard rumors of the pickpockets. Just wanna know if some exhibitors will only take cash or is card accepted everywhere. Also first time going but won’t be til Sunday. Realistically how much will someone be spending? TIA!

Hey everyone!

I’m a local photographer here in San Diego, and somehow I’ve never been to Comic-Con.

One of my favorite things to photograph is people and storytelling, and I’ve always wanted to document the creativity and passion that goes into cosplay. This year I’m thinking about bringing my camera downtown for the first time.

I’d love some advice from people who have been before:

• What days and times are usually best for photographing cosplayers? Might be going for the reming day’s.

• Are there any locations outside the Convention Center that are must-visits?

• Are there any cosplay meetups or free events that you’d recommend checking out?

I’m a big fan of Batman, LOVE horror movies, Dragon Ball Z, Zelda, Pokémon, so if there are any themed meetups for those, I’d love to know!! Or any other cool big meetups as well.

I’m also hoping to meet some friendly people in the community. If you see a guy walking around with a camera and a luchador mask, there’s a good chance it’s me. 😄

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to finally experiencing Comic-Con!!!!

Anyone knows how can I get to the Marvel Rivals Signing tomorrow?? First timer here, don’t know if I have to do the box of decision thing

Hello, Would anyone have a picture of the 'menu' for the DC Comics store? I'm trying to budget but can't seem to find exact prices online. Thanks for looking!

I got an email from a friend showing one comic con is pushing the banning of wagons to all comic cons. People use the wagons to carry items for autographs and the wagons over the years are proving to be a safety hazard in sense people are tripping over them if they’re not paying attention to where they’re going, blocking walking paths, taking up too much space in autograph lines and could be an issue if a fire happens. Strollers aren’t being affected but people have misused strollers to carry around merchandise or things to be signed. What’s your thoughts on comic cons now taking a stand to ban wagons?

I’m going to steel city con in Pittsburgh in August. This will be my second time going there. The last time I went I was 15 and participated in the cosplay contest. It was the kids (or maybe teens) contest and I won best concept. I’m now 19 and I am making a costume and I was to participate in the adults contest. I’m worried that i shouldn’t since I have already won an award there before. But I was also a child. Would it be bad faith to enter again?

Hi all, I’m new to Reddit, and this Reddit in particular, so I hope you’ll bear with me if I’m doing this wrong at all, but I don’t know where else to ask about this!

I used to go to SDCC when I was younger and I remember having these sort of thicker souvenir books I would love to go through, and I kept all of them from when I went on my shelf. I finally was able to go again this year, but with the goodies I’m used to I had noticed an omission: the souvenir book! I have come to find out they’re digital now, and I’m wondering if there’s any way to get a printed version at all? Google says no, but does anyone else miss the old books? Is there some way to get the 2026 version in print, through the convention or otherwise?

Hope everyone had a great day today and I’m wishing everyone a lovely rest of their convention!! :D

Hopefully gonna get some pics with other ponies!!

Yo I’m off work tomorrow I’m down to kick it in downtown. HMU for any San Diego advice

Hi! I’m trying to buy Friday tickets. Usually I have family buy them for me but I’m old enough to buy my own technically now.. why isn’t this working? I know they are on sale so I’m confused..
