The Paramount+ Lodge, produced by 15|40 Productions, returned to San Diego Comic Con for its 4th year running, showing again why it’s a fan favourite amongst attendees.

As guests entered The Lodge, they were immediately given the opportunity to get some personalised swag in the form of a engraved luggage tag, or a flag with two of their chosen patches from their favourite shows sewn on.

From there attendees could immerse themselves into the world of Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender by walking through and taking photos in The Republic City Marketplace. Free posters were giving out and refreshing teas were on offer to quench guests’ thirst.

If fans wanted something more boozy, they could head to the Dutton Ranch inspired bar, with themed cocktails. Our personal favourite was the Mountain Cooler which was the standout of all the drinks offered at The Lodge.

Once done with drinks, attendees could play a rodeo style game of hay bale rope pull and line up for a Dutton Ranch themed photo op.

Dutton Ranch also inspired the food which were branded mini-burgers. This year, the burgers required a scan of your wristband rather than a free for all which made the system a lot more organised.

The Lodge then offered guests the chance to work off their food in the UFC Challenge. Fans could participate in various challenges like measuring their grip strength, playing a light matching game, and catching falling sticks to test their reflexes. At the end, a branded UFC towel was given as a souvenir and attendees could participate in a photo op.

Other photo ops included South Park and Star Trek. For Star Trek, there was also the opportunity to have a video of you being beamed up.

The Star Trek themed room was a personal favourite of ours. With lots of seats, a DJ keeping guests entertained, delicious fruit cubes being passed round and a glitzy bar, it was the perfect place to relax.

The bar had a themed cocktail and mocktail for attendees to enjoy. These drinks were on the sweeter side compared to the milder drinks at Dutton Ranch bar, but they looked incredible and kept with the Star Trek theme.

One of the most reliable offsites at Comic Con, Paramount+ Lodge always delivers and this year was no different. Covering a variety of properties and with lots of photo ops, food and drink, swag, and interactive experiences, there’s something for everyone at The Lodge. We’re counting down the days to their 5th year in 2027!
