San Diego: Thursday tops Sunday in Booked Occupancy (Nov 9–15, 2026)

San Diego short-term rentals for Nov 9–15, 2026: Thursday has higher Booked Occupancy than Sunday, even as TwitchCon continues through Sunday.

Updated November 10, 2026

TwitchCon keeps San Diego, California’s convention calendar active through Sunday, Nov 15. For Hosts & Operators assessing the week, the telling contrast is with Thursday night, before the convention begins—not simply with the weekend peak.

Thursday has higher citywide Booked Occupancy than Sunday in San Diego during November 9, 2026–November 15, 2026. Wheelhouse data as of November 5, 2026 shows Thursday, November 12, 2026, at 25.9% Booked Occupancy, compared with 20.2% on Sunday, November 15, 2026, when TwitchCon concludes.

Wheelhouse data shows Sunday has the week's lowest Asking Rate, despite TwitchCon continuing that day.

The convention’s final day trails the night before it begins

The San Diego Convention Center lists TwitchCon for November 13, 2026–November 15, 2026, within the analyzed stay window of November 9, 2026–November 15, 2026. Yet the citywide Booked Occupancy pattern is concentrated toward the start of that event: Friday, Nov 13, leads the week at 29.6%, followed by Saturday, Nov 14, at 28.1%.

Thursday’s position above Sunday makes the contrast more interesting than a routine weekend peak. Sunday has more time remaining until arrival than Thursday, so these readings should remain a comparison of the dated observations. Sunday also has the week’s lowest Asking Rate at $405, while Thursday’s is $421. The convention’s full calendar span is therefore not mirrored by uniformly high citywide readings across its stay dates.

Sunday’s own history can settle the priority

Thursday has a calendar attraction of its own: San Diego Theatres lists Outlander in Concert at Civic Theatre on Nov 12. That gives both Thursday and Sunday relevant local context, but the weekday itself could explain their difference; the event schedules alone do not explain the Booked Occupancy gap.

Use Wheelhouse Performance Analytics to compare your Sunday, Nov 15, with past Sundays, checked the same number of days before arrival and with the same nights open for booking. If your Sunday Booked Occupancy is also below those matched Sundays, keep Sunday as the priority for a date-specific review; if it matches or exceeds them, shift attention to dates that trail their own matched weekdays rather than treating the citywide Thursday–Sunday contrast as a property-level shortfall.
