Generally speaking, programming begins at 9AM each of the three days. On Friday and Saturday everything shuts down by 3AM at the latest. On Sunday, everything is shut down by 4PM.

From the average attendee perspective, most of the major events tend run from about 10am-10pm, with mostly "after dark" programing happening after that which runs until about 2-3am Fri and Sat. On Sunday most events are wrapped up around 3pm with a few outliers running until 4-5pm. The later stuff on Sunday is mostly stuff like convention feedback and a few unofficial things.

also worth mentioning, the schedule usually gets released as it gets closer to the con. so right now you have a rough estimate for when things will be, but a week or two before you will be able to figure out when the stuff that you absolutely want to see is going to be at.

Thankfully, Sunday leaves enough time to cry. :(

There's no need to cry on sunday. There are always other conventions through out the year to look forward too.
