Fan favorite Peanuts is returning to San Diego Comic-Con, and they’re inviting you to celebrate 50 years of the Beagle Scouts with them, as well as the upcoming Apple TV+ series CAMP SNOOPY, with merchandise, a pop-up, panel, and more. In the Gaslamp, Peanuts will be setting up camp at 200 J. Street, Suite 105 for a "Camp Snoopy" and “Beagle Scouts” pop-up. Attendees will find plenty of activities, with bird spotting (how many Woodstocks and his fellow Beagle Scout bird friends can you spot?), learning how to read a Peanuts-themed compass, and a writing-letters home station (“Send cookies!”). The offsite will also feature merch, including an adorable Woodstock Youtooz plush, Pintrill pins of Snoopy and the Beagle Scouts; iron-on merit badges; a Snoopy canteen; a compass; a burritote (for keeping your burrito warm, of course!). And with prices ranging from $10 to $25, you can snag what you want while still saving some pennies for the booth merchandise. The pop-up will be open Thursday, July 20 – Sunday, July 23 from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. daily. On the show floor of the Convention Center, you’ll find Peanuts at Booth #1635, where you’ll be a happy camper to discover Snoopy himself, making in-person appearances throughout the con. Fans will also get a chance to purchase even more Peanuts merchandise in celebration of the Beagle Scouts, including: Snoopy tees with a desert motif Snoopy-and-Woodstock lanyards for visitors’ Comic-Con passes Aposter of one of the original Beagle Scout comic strips, featuring Scout leader Snoopy in his sleeping bag Retro Charlie Brown checkers set Snoopy bandana Beagle Scouts trucker hat Super 7 vinyl figure; a shopping tote A compass A Snoopy burritote ABeagle Scout Youtooz plush Pintrill pins; iron-on patches A canteen A zine Copies of "Charles M.
