Does anyone know when Fanime will post the schedule. I know there is alot more planning to do. It just helps. I know it was posted and downloadable last couple of years. Thanks for any info. See everyone there for another great year!!!!!
They usually post it anywhere from a week to a few days before the convention : )
Yeah last year my friend didn't look for it until the night before we left for the con, but I bet it would take a while to really finalize everything. I can't imagine the amount of last minute changes and cancellation/other problems, that happen when planning something on such a huge scale.
Is there a resource and if so, could someone point me to it, with just a general schedule for ALL events at the con? I'm bringing my disabled son and his girlfriend and need more info about hours that the con opens, floorplan of the convention center, what time all events occur, etc. Can only find listings of events by category, and even then, am not seeing specific times for events.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The schedule will likely not be posted till late this week or next. Our programming is continually changing, so we wait till the events are reasonably set until posting the schedule.

The schedule will be posted online shortly, as
ewu pointed out. That will contain all the different tracks of programming, the events within, and their times. Updates will be publicized throughout the convention at Info Booths.
The more general information is contained in the program guide. Generally speaking, the convention is somewhat open on Thursday evening, fully opens Friday morning, and doesn't close down until Monday afternoon. Check out sanjose.org (http://www.sanjose.org) for a floorplan (http://www.sanjose.org/EC2/sitepdfs/convention-center-layout.pdf) and for more info about the surrounding area.
Hope that helps! :)
