According to the interactive map for the L.A. Convention Center, these are the room capacities--

Room 150  - 360
Room 151  - 1020
Room 152  - 1020
Room 403AB  - 1000
Room 408AB  - 1000
Room 411  - 299
Room 502A  - 550
Room 502B  - 550
Room 515A  - 650
Room 515B  - 650
Room 518  - 250

and of course there's the Microsoft Theater, which has a capacity of 7100.

The rooms being used for TV and Comic Book panels, 403AB and 408AB, are smaller than the rooms used at the Anaheim Convention Center for similar panels. At Anaheim, CCI used Rooms 300AB and 300DE. Each of these held about 1500. So there will be about 500 less seats for these panels compared to last year. If you are planning on attending any of the panels in these two rooms, you might want to get there early just in case they reach capacity.

Thanks for the link, free cast signings are way down from previous years but better than nothing.

Yeah both my friend and I noticed that (at separate times) too. The only thing that sounds interesting is iZombie. I do know from Jessica Chobot that she and Nerdist will be there for meet and greets and moderating panels if that interests anyone. I almost had myself convinced there would be more of a Hollywood presence there since it was so close to the WB/Universal studios. I especially thought they would feature Wonder-Woman there. After watching Park & Cons' periscope videos of where the activities will be, I'm not even sure I'll make it through much of Saturday. Hopefully, I am proved wrong.

Venue change maybe?
I read it was supposed to be in Petree Hall.
