Emerging designer collectibles brand Thrilljoy hosted its flagship off-site event during San Diego Comic-Con 2026, taking over the InterContinental San Diego for “Thrilljoy’s Block Party: Rock the Block.”

Co-founded by former Funko CEO Brian Mariotti, the high-energy ticketed gathering brought together pop culture fans and serious collectors along the waterfront. Highlights of the night featured a live headlining performance by pop-punk band Bowling For Soup, alongside interactive games, raffle prizes, and catered food and drinks. Every attendee received a ticket-exclusive Block Party PIX! Pack filled with limited-edition, event-only vinyl collectibles and rare chase variants unavailable on the general convention floor.

By merging live music, community engagement, and scarce physical releases, Thrilljoy’s “Rock the Block” event proved to be one of the most coveted off-site tickets of SDCC weekend.
