Pensacon, Pensacola’s comic, sci-fi and pop culture convention, takes over downtown for three days in February. Announced guests so far include Lou Ferrigno, Edward James Olmos and John Ratzenberger, and more are listed on the official site. Check the official site for the full guest list and schedule as it fills in.
Pensacon weekend is one of downtown’s busiest, and parking near the Bay Center fills early. From Gulf Breeze, allow extra time on the Pensacola Bay Bridge, or carpool.
Check before you cross the bridge: Pensacon’s official site showed this date as scheduled when we checked on October 26, 2026, seventeen days after Hurricane Isaias made landfall near Destin on October 9. Recovery is still under way around Pensacola Bay, so confirm with the organizer and check FL511 for road conditions before you go.
