Adult Swim taking over the SDCC green again

Dateline: 7/16/2026

Adult Swim on the Green is returning to San Diego Comic-Con again this year, and Adult Swim will be hosting several panels this year.

From Adult Swim:

Adult Swim is bringing its signature mix of humor, creativity and controlled chaos to San Diego Comic-Con with exclusive conversations, unforgettable fan experiences, and one-of-a-kind activations. Across four days of programming and events, fans will have multiple opportunities to connect with the shows, talent and offbeat experiences that make Adult Swim unlike anything else.

“Comic-Con is one of our favorite opportunities to get out from behind the screen and spend time with the people who make these shows possible: the fans,” said Adult Swim President Michael Ouweleen. “We’ve got great talent, great shows and an alarming number of things for attendees to climb on, play with and become emotionally attached to. Honestly, we’ve created the kind of weekend we’d want to attend ourselves.”

ADULT SWIM ON THE GREEN
Adult Swim on the Green makes its return outside the San Diego Convention Center (5th Avenue Landing and Convention Way). Open Thursday (7/23) through Saturday (7/25) from 1pm–10pm and Sunday (7/26) from 11am-4pm, Adult Swim on the Green will hold spectacular can’t-miss experiences and nighttime events, no badge required!

At the center of this year’s Adult Swim on the Green is the RAMbler, a one-of-a-kind Rick and Morty-themed twist on the classic Scrambler ride. Housed inside a custom dome and surrounded by original animation, music and immersive effects, fans will enter through a more-than-26-foot-tall Rick head before being transported into the chaotic universe of Rick and Morty for a can’t-miss Comic-Con experience that’s part thrill ride, part interdimensional fever dream.

The Green will also feature a lineup of all-new, custom-built experiences inspired by Adult Swim favorites. Explore the surreal world of Common Side Effects at an eight-foot-tall Marshall fountain, hop in the hot tub with the Campbell Boys for a hilariously absurd Haha, You Clowns mini-golf challenge, test your skills in a President Curtis slingshot game featuring creatures from the upcoming series, and climb aboard a larger-than-life Mr. Boss attraction celebrating the Emmy-nominated hit Smiling Friends.

Adult Swim on the Green will also host a series of free nighttime events, all beginning at 7:15pm:

  • Thursday (7/23): Night of New: Exclusive Content Screening – Adult Swim kicks off Comic-Con weekend with an exclusive outdoor screening event where fans will get a first look at a collection of never-before-seen content, including surprise previews and can't-miss reveals from across the network.
  • Friday (7/24): Live Table Reads – Join the voice casts of Rick and Morty for an exclusive live table read featuring laughs, surprises and a rare behind-the-scenes look at the talent bringing these fan-favorite worlds to life.
  • Saturday (7/25): Adult Swim Through the Years – Don your favorite Adult Swim-inspired cosplay and join a one-night-only celebration of 25 years of unforgettable characters, moments and mayhem, featuring a live animated visual set from Afuchs Twin.

All of the above will be followed by a free DJ Dance party from 9-10pm. For full details on Adult Swim on the Green visit link.
