Wow, is it time to start planning for SDCC already??? Comic-Con 2026 Open Registration is set for November 15, 2025! Be ready to enter the virtual waiting room before the badge sale begins at 9:00 AM Pacific Standard Time (PST). The waiting room opens at 7:30 AM PST, so you have over an hour to arrive.
To join Open Registration on November 15, you’ll need a valid Comic-Con Member ID. New participants should create an account in advance, and returning members should check that their details are up to date, including name, password, email, membership type, and payment information. Figure out your preferred days in advance, and have an alternate plan prepared if any badges sell out before you check out. If your payment is not pre-saved in your account, you will need your credit or debit card ready at checkout.
If you are buying badges for others, you must have their Member ID and last name exactly as shown in their account. Any special characters or suffixes must be included for the purchase to be successful.
