Just a warning if you're planning on going. Saturday badges are already gone, so this is your last shot to attend the whole thing.
And if you're wondering if this is "as good" as SDCC, I can't tell you because I have never attended WonderCon - not once - but obviously it's a popular event and worth attending if you got shut out of SDCC and don't think you'll attend Comikaze.
Buy your badges here.
WonderCon is like how SDCC used to be a decade ago, back before badge mania and massive lives for everything. It's definitely a CCI con, and has the same feel as SDCC, but it's not so jam-packed with things that you feel like you're missing out on a bunch of stuff. There are movie and TV panels, but not usually the same 'caliber' as you would see at SDCC. Still, they are worth seeing. There is a lot of cosplay, but little in the way of 'big media' booths and swag giveaways on the convention floor. I have been enjoying this convention every year since 2009 and would highly recommend it to anyone who wants an 'easier' SDCC-like experience.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great endorsement.
