Keep these numbers in mind when deciding how early you should get in line for a panel that you really want to go to. Also, remember that San Diego Comic-Con does not clear rooms between panels, so it is possible you might need to get to a room early and sit through a panel that you don’t really care about in order to make sure you get into your desired panel.
* The capacity for the Harbor Ballroom at Manchester Grand Hyatt for the Her Universe Fashion Show may be different than the “Theater” capacity listed on the hotel’s site, due to the setup for the fashion show. Per Ashley Eckstein in this article, the capacity for the Her Universe Fashion Show was 2,000 in the past.
