Ready Party One
XLE Productions has built a reputation at San Diego Comic-Con for delivering some of the most fan-centered parties of the entire week. Known for their creativity and deep connection to fandom, XLE has hosted unforgettable experiences like Ready Party One, The Malibu Dream Experience, and Nostalgia Nightclub.
The fans have noticed, too. XLE’s parties have earned them the coveted Shruggie Award for Best Party not once, but twice — beating out heavy hitters like Fandom, Funko Fundays, and other major entertainment brands. With vibrant music, detailed décor, cosplay-friendly vibes, and a welcoming community atmosphere, XLE doesn’t just throw events — they create shared experiences that fans talk about long after the con ends.
This year, XLE returns with one blowout bash: Ready Party One, happening Wednesday, July 23 at Parq Nightclub at 8pm PT. As the unofficial kickoff to Comic-Con, it’s your portal to the OASIS and beyond. Step into a fully immersive night of cosplay, nostalgia, and non-stop music that blends cinematic universes, gaming worlds, and fan-favorite anthems into one unforgettable party.
As per usual, The Flux Capacitors will be headlining this year’s event, playing hits from Back to the Future, Pokémon, Power Rangers, Harry Potter, Mortal Kombat, One Piece, Shrek, Parks & Rec, and more. Complementing the live music will be DJ sets spinning bangers from the ’80s, ’90s, and 2000s.
Want to take your look even further? Complimentary airbrush tattoos are available to help you fully transform into your avatar of choice. You’ll also find themed photo ops, glowing decor, and more.
