Comic-Con

Comic-Con returns to San Diego July 17 - 21 at the San Diego Convention Center.  It's a special year as Comic-Con celebrates its 50th anniversary. With 15-minute service, or better, to the Gaslamp Quarter and Convention Center Stations, riding the Trolley is the easiest way to join in Comic-Con festivities. Whether you have a coveted pass or will be headed to the fun outside the Convention Center, hop onboard the Trolley for direct service to Comic-Con (the people watching is great, too).   

Commemorative Passes Available June 20!
