SDCC dates July 19-22, 2018 ? Unofficial

Discovered on the bookings schedule, a ‘Private Convention with Trade Show’ is listed from the 19th to the 22nd July 2018 with an estimated attendance of 130,000. Now, while the Convention Centre does hold some other pretty huge shows over the summer, the time frame and the very specific numbers — determined by previous attendance listings in years past — do suggest that this one is our very own San Diego Comic-Con.

One year it was on the 4 of July weekend and the dealers were not happy

So I'll be the odd person out and say that I preferred it toward the beginning of July, because things weren't such a rush after I got back (GenCon and the big Star Trek con in Vegas and school starting all happen at the beginning of August).

As an accountant I love this time.  It is right in the middle of my deadlines and I don't have to worry about quitting my job for SDCC.

I have to throw my vote for the beginning of July. My daughter's 18th birthday was July 30 and both my son and myself were still recovering both physically and financially, I think I saw actual tears coming from my credit card  :'(

I think my credit card is going to join you!  They announced DCC as June 30th to July 2nd 2017.  With the girls just moving to Houston I was thinking I should fly them up for DCC so they can come home, go to their con, and see their friends.  Then add D23 and SDCC a few weeks later and my Credit card may be sobbing for months!
