Later this month, Disney once again returns to San Diego for the biggest event of the year in the entertainment space, the San Diego Comic-Con, which will feature activations and panels on many of Disney Entertainment Television\u2019s biggest shows, many of which are available to stream on Hulu and Disney+.<\/p>\n
The event kicks off on Thursday, 23rd July 2026, with outdoor activations for Hulu Animayhem: Fandom Fuel Up, FX\u2019s \u201cAHS\u201d 13 Flavors stunt, and the \u201cPercy Jackson\u201d.\u00a0 These activations are open to the public directly outside the San Diego Convention Center, plus eight star-studded panels taking place throughout the weekend.<\/p>\n
This year, Hulu Animayhem is taking over the Gaslamp with a food and beverage-driven, fan-first experience inspired by \u201cFuturama\u201d and \u201cKing of the Hill.\u201d The iconic Planet Express returns to Comic-Con alongside Bobby Hill\u2019s new Robata Chane venture. Guests can enjoy themed offerings like Fry\u2019s 100 Days of Cold Brew and Robata Chane-inspired yakitori. As guests fuel up, they\u2019ll explore immersive environments, uncover hidden Easter eggs and capture shareable moments inspired by fan-favourite storylines from each series. On the exhibit floor, Hulu Animayhem fans can also shop for new merchandise and SDCC exclusives from their favorite series like \u201cBob\u2019s Burgers,\u201d \u201cKing of the Hill,\u201d \u201cFuturama,\u201d \u201cFamily Guy\u201d and more at booth #4229.<\/p>\n
In celebration of the upcoming 13th instalment of \u201cAmerican Horror Story,\u201d FX is taking over San Diego with fan-favourite characters and sinister sweets inspired by the series. A fleet of four branded ice cream trucks will serve up a total of 12 different flavours, each inspired by a different instalment. Fans will also get the chance to see a few iconic \u201cAHS\u201d characters, including Rubber Man (\u201cMurder House\u201d), Twisty the Clown (\u201cFreak Show\u201d), the Witch (\u201cCoven\u201d) and more. On Saturday evening, fans will be invited to a secret location to experience the 13th Scoop.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Returning to SDCC, the \u201cPercy Jackson and the Olympians\u201d Experience will allow fans to choose their own adventure as they step into the titan-sized trident. Along the shared journey, guests will be invited to choose which character\u2019s path they will follow: Percy, Annabeth or Thalia. Each prong becomes a distinct, character-driven environment that reflects the forces shaping their quest. Prophecy-led clues, hidden Easter eggs from the upcoming season and exclusive Camp Half-Blood pins will all be revealed throughout the mythical journey.<\/p>\n
