Comic Con returns to New York City for another year and expects a higher attendance than the previous two years, despite still having a mask mandate at the event.

An estimated 200,000 fans will make their way to the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in Manhattan between October 6 and October 9.

Comic Con has “Mask Stewards” roam the halls to deliver masks while “making sure everyone wears theirs,” according to the website. It adds that those unwilling to comply with the mask mandate could be removed or banned from the event without a refund.
