The Gaslamp: A boozy wonderland packed tight with bars, nightclubs, swanky lounges and rooftop sanctuaries. For visitors to San Diego during Comic-Con International 2015, you’ll want to follow the yellow-brick-roads, known as Fourth and Fifth avenues, toward liquor-infused dreams.

Occupying prime real estate in the Gaslamp on the bustling corner of Fifth Avenue and Market Street, the massive barleymash acts as a main hub of action during the Con. There are 30 beers on tap from the city’s best micro- and nano-breweries here, plus garage door-style windows that allow patrons to feel the pulse of downtown.
