Actors and writers won’t be in attendance at the 2023 San Diego Comic-Con due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes; however, the show must go on. 130,000 people are expected to attend the sold-out pop culture convention, and rather than star-studded panels, this year’s Con is going back to its roots.
There will still be plenty to do over the four-day event – running July 20 through 23 in downtown San Diego – including panels, exhibitor booths, autograph signings, outdoor activations, pop-ups, and parties. One of the big draws is likely to be the immersive HULU ANIMAYHEM: ENTER THE 2ND DIMENSION experience set up behind the San Diego Convention Center in the Bayfront Parking Lot.
The massive Hulu Animayhem experience will be open on Thursday, July 20th from 11:30am to 7pm PT, and on Saturday and Sunday from 9:30am to 7pm. The experience opens at 9:30am on Sunday and wraps up at 5pm.
