Just read this:
Anaheim makes bid to lure Comic-Con from San Diego - SignOnSanDiego.com I never figured Anaheim would want to take on Comic Con but I guess they're well suited for tourists already. Last edited by Dansolo; 02-24-2010 at 03:10 PM.. |

It's the San Diego Comic Con. I couldn't see it moving anywhere else.

It's San Diego Comic-Con, but only because it's been there for so long. I'm up for Anaheim if they can promise more space so tickets don't sell out like they do now.

SD's facility is great and perfect for something like the Comic Con, the entire 2nd floor (most of it) is movable walls that can be moved and sized as needed. Does Anaheim have a similar convention center?

They've hosted bridal fairs, car shows, and live performances at the same time before. However, they don't get the attendance that CC brings in and are mainly local organizations. |

I'm partial to San Diego, cause I could drive there (45 min. drive). Plus I love downtown San Diego. Sure, Anaheim has Disneyland and California Adventure, but people go to the con for the con. Downtown San Diego offers a lot of good restaurants, the oceanfront and a nightlife......all walking distance to the hotels and the convention center

Hmm...could this have anything to do with Marvel now being part of Disney?

Anaheim would be nice because My brother lives close enough that I wouldn't have to get a hotel, so that would mean more money for convention stuff.
However, I kind of like going to San Diego every year. Makes COmic Con seem more special since I never go there otherwise. I'm in Anaheim pretty often. |
