New York Comic Con has hit the big 2-0.

The East Coast’s biggest fan convention kicks off its 2026 event Thursday, marking its 20th year celebrating comics, film, TV, games, anime and general “geek” culture out of New York City’s Javits Convention Center. What began as a 33,000-attendee event in 2006 will host 250,000 people over the course of its four-day proceedings this year, with more than 500 creators and 650 exhibitors on the ground.
