SDCC 2023 schedule: Dates, times, and what San Diego Comic-Con panels are canceled

San Diego Comic Con 2023

San Diego Comic-Con may be looking a little bit different this year as it grapples with two ongoing strikes for WGA and SAG-AFTRA. However, that doesn't mean that plenty isn't still happening at the yearly convention for all things TV, film, comics, and more. To help you navigate what panels are happening and when, we've broken this all down in our SDCC 2023 schedule. 

So while Marvel and DC are giving the event a miss, there are still some very intriguing panels on the cards. At the moment, some of the biggest releases we're expecting to see are new looks at are Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, The Walking Dead, and Star Trek. Although, just a warning, these panels may still change as several have been canceled over the past few days. Don't worry though, we'll keep our SDCC 2023 schedule up to date to make sure you don't miss a moment.

And of course, we won't be seeing any writers or actors at the convention as it goes against strike rules. For more details on what exactly these rules are, you can read our breakdown of the WGA strikes and the SAG-AFTRA strikes
