The biggest and most popular convention in the entertainment industry, San Diego Comic-Con, is fast approaching, and here’s every film and TV panel confirmed so far and where and when they will take place. Conventions in the entertainment industry have become widely popular due to their various events and panels, and in some cases, they have become so big they are now the go-to place for studios to make some of their biggest announcements and reveal exclusives. Such is the case of San Diego Comic-Con, the biggest convention in the industry which is getting ready for a new edition.
Founded in 1970, San Diego Comic-Con is a four-day event (Thursday to Sunday) held during the summer since 2003 at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, California. The convention was, originally, all about showcasing comic books and sci-fi/fantasy-related movies, TV shows, and other popular arts, but as the years have passed and the industry has changed, it now includes a larger range of pop culture and entertainment elements across all genres, which has contributed to its popularity and importance in many genres and art forms. After being canceled in 2020 and 2021, San Diego Comic-Con is back at the convention center, opening its doors to fans from all over the world.
As expected, SDCC 2022 will have a long list of comic book, film, and TV panels as well as special events and activities inside the convention center and its surroundings, and here’s every confirmed TV and film panel and when they will take place.
