Los Angeles Comic Con Sets Records With 15TH Anniversary Convention!

Los Angeles Comic Con has come and gone at the Los Angeles Convention Center. The convention ran from October 30, 2026 through November 1, 2026, and inspite of the conventions center unfortunate parking situation, was a massive success. The event was not only the most attended Los Angeles Comic Con, but thanks to the well distributed tickets, was one of the most evenly spread upon convention, with people attending in record numbers across the entire convention!

Fan loved Akiba Station returned this year, thanks to Otaku Collectives, with a foot print more than twice its original size, reaching 50,000 square feet!

Lets look at the facts from the convention!

The convention welcomed 137,700 attendees, a new record and the 15-year history of the convention and up 5% from the prior year.

The convention set sales records for Friday-only and Sunday-only tickets, meaning crowds every day of the con!

The convention had the most new options within the space with the brand-new sections “The Card Show” and Kids Zone, with the return of the Gaming and Akiba Station.

The Main Stage delivered so many reunions from Breaking Bad, Outlander, Futurama, and The Office.

The convention hosted more than 1200 artists and exhibitors at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

Some of our favorite panels were Breaking Bad’s experience that saw the inclusion of Giancarlo Esposito, Bob Odenkirk (who made his first Con debut), Dean Norris, and a surprise visit from Aaron Paul! Nicolas Cage made waves as he talked not only about the amazing Spider-Noir series, but highlights from his legendary career.

There were also amazing panels with the cast of Star Wars: Ahsoka including Rosario Dawson, Natasha Liu Bordizzo, and Eman Esfandi. If you are a fan of Star Wars, you’d probably be excited to see Temuera Morrison and Daniel Logan, actors who took on the role of Boba Fett.

Of all our favorite things though, we loved the return of Kids Trick-or-Treating at the convention, thanks to the crossover of Halloween. Especially since it rained the night, and cut trick or treating short in our neighborhood. Being able to take our daughter to the convention earlier in the day, really saved the holiday. We especially loved Albanese’s inclusion as a sponser, and how many gummy bears they gave away at the convention, since gummy bears is my daughter’s favorite treat!

Next year’s show is already revealed to take place on October 22, 2027 through October 24, 2027, so make sure to mark your calendars, and see you there!
