Join us on May 30 for a day celebrating everything pop culture on Alcatraz! Alcatraz is more than a historic landmark, it’s a cultural icon. From movies, to video games, to comics, Alcatraz continues to shape and reflect how we wrestle with ideas of justice, incarceration, and our common humanity.

On both sides of the bars, fandom can be an escape and a source of community. Whatever fandom you’re part of, you’re welcome on Alcatraz. Check out the schedule below for a list of events.

Comic Book Day is a free event for all ages. However, you must purchase a ticket to the island. To purchase ferry tickets, visit the Alcatraz City Cruises website.

There will be two opportunities to attend the event:
  • For the Day Tour, we recommend buying tickets for the 10:35 AM boat.
  • For Night Tour, we recommend the 5:55 PM boat.
 

Schedule

Stay tuned for the schedule!
