Your Go-To Packing List for Comic-Con 2025

What are you waiting for? It’s time to get packing! We’ve put together a curated packing list to help you feel prepared so you can enjoy every moment of Comic-Con. You might even spot a few must-haves you hadn’t thought of—so don’t skip this list! A little planning now means less stress and more fun once you arrive.


Mga Pangunahing Prayoridad:

Badge o Barcode Confirmation!

You must have one of these to access the convention center! If you didn’t receive your badge in the mail, you’ll need to pick it up on-site with your confirmation email in hand. Check the schedule here to plan your pick-up time.

ID ng Larawan

From badge pick-up to random security checks, keep your photo ID (like a driver’s license, passport, or government-issued card) easily accessible at all times.

Listahan ng Suriin:

Mga Materyal sa Autograph

Maghanda ng isang nakalaang buklet o mga espesyal na bagay na pipirmahan, na sinamahan ng iba't ibang mga panulat at marker. Tiyaking suriin ang lahat ng impormasyon sa pagbabayad para sa mga pag sign at autograph, dahil maaari silang mag iba depende sa kung sino ang nagpirma. Dagdag pa, maraming mga artista o artist ang mas gustong gumamit ng itim na panulat kapag nagpipirma ng mga item.

Backpack o Tote Bag

You may want to bring a small bag to store your essentials and any new purchases. You can also use your complimentary souvenir bag that’s available in the Sails Pavilion. Remember that rolling carts, luggage, and similar items are not permitted in the Exhibit Hall.

Batteries/Phone Charger/Power Bank

Remember to bring extra batteries for your camera, battery banks for your phone, and other devices. Keep them close by for those moments when you need a quick power boost!

Business Cards/Resumes/
Portfolio Samples

Magbigay ng kasangkapan sa iyong sarili sa iyong mga finest business card, resume, at mga sample upang mapahusay ang iyong mga pagkakataon sa networking.

Camera

Kung gumagamit ng isang telepono o isang camera, makuha ang mga perpektong sandali. Gayunpaman, tandaan na mag iwan ng mga selfie stick o anumang iba pang mga lumalawak na aparato sa bahay, dahil mahigpit na ipinagbabawal ang mga ito sa lugar.

Cash at Card

ATMs are available but often have long lines, so it’s a good idea to bring both cash and card. Some booths may offer deals for cash payments, while others may only accept cards to make transactions quicker and easier.

Mga Kumportableng Sapatos

Comic-Con means lots of walking and standing, so skip the fashion risks and wear shoes your feet already trust.

Hotel/Travel Info

Printing out your reservation information ahead of time to make your hotel check-in quick or car pick-up stress-free.

Mga Mapa

Get the Official Comic-Con App for updated maps and schedules! With it, you can view maps that highlight all areas in and around the San Diego Convention Center, as well as nearby hotels.

Poster Tubes/Art Sleeves/Sturdy Folders

Get these on-site or save by purchasing ahead of the convention. The perfect print or surprise freebie could be just around the corner.

Mga Materyal sa Pagpapadala

Shipping your awesome finds? Here’s where to grab supplies like boxes, tape, and labels:

  • FedEx Office Business Center inside the convention center
  • Post Office on E Street
  • Other nearby shops with shipping materials

Sketchbook

Want a sketch from your favorite artist? Bring a sturdy sketchbook. It keeps your impressive new drawing safe and protected.

Mga meryenda

Keep your tummy happy and energy up by packing your favorite snacks. From trail mix to gummy bears, a stash of goodies can be a lifesaver in long lines or back at your hotel.

Mga sweatshirt, jacket, coat

Pack outerwear just in case, since our summer nights can get chilly and certain rooms in the convention center might be colder than expected.

App ng Pagsasalin

With fans visiting from all over the world, a translation app can help you connect, chat, and make new friends. Say goodbye to language barriers and hello to shared fandom fun.

Refillable na Bote ng Tubig

Hydration is key to feeling your best. Start your day with water and keep it going—refill stations are available throughout the convention center.

Mga Listahan ng Wish

Update your wish list and store it on your phone for quick access while you’re shopping. Keep tabs on our upcoming Toucan Tips for any new finds that you can add to your list!
