Comedy Central Announces SOUTH PARK Activation and DRUNK HISTORY Panel At New York Comic Con

Comedy Central is bringing the laughs to the New York Comic Con at the Javits Center. Comedy Central franchises South Park and Drunk History will take part in the festivities at 2018 New York Comic Con at the Javits Center, located at 655 West 34 Street in Manhattan. Comedy Central will present the Drunk History panel in room 1A06 on Saturday, October 6 from 8:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m., respectively, and South Park's interactive fan activation will take place all weekend, Thursday, October 4 - Sunday, October 7 during convention hours (Thursday-Saturday from 10:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. and Sunday from 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.).

Cartman's Escape Room is making its New York Comic-Con debut. Trapped! Caught in another one of Cartman's schemes, fans will now enter the most impossible to escape place ever invented. South Park fans will have a limited amount of time to solve a series of puzzles using what they know about the Emmy® and Peabody® Award-winning series to free themselves... before it's too late. This South Park activation is free and open to all New York Comic Con badge holders, located at Booth #662.

It's time to raise a glass to the Emmy® Award-winning Drunk History. Derek Waters (co-creator/host/director) and other panelists will walk you through how this liquored-up narration of American history works, with the help of an ever-changing cast of intoxicated actors and comedians. Booze helps bring out the truth; it's just that sometimes the truth is a little incoherent! From humble beginnings as a digital series to five seasons on Comedy Central, Derek and friends have plenty of stories to share from the making of the show. Stop by to get an exclusive sneak peek at the upcoming sixth season, a Q&A with some surprise guests and plenty more Drunk History debauchery! Panel will take place on Saturday, October 6 at 8:00 p.m. in room 1A06.
