At the end of this year´s New York Comic Con the company in charge of the event, ReedPop, reported a total of 151,000 tickets sold for the event. Compared to SDCC´s attendance of 130,000 people, that´s a difference of 21,000 tickets sold, meaning that NYCC is now the biggest pop culture event in North America.
Last year´s event had a capacity problem at the Javitz Center limiting its attendance to 133,000 people but this year ReedPop fixed that by adding one day more to the convention, starting on Thursday instead of Friday. This allowed them to increase the number of tickets sold.
The next New York Comic Con has been announced for October 8-11, 2015
