Blizzard Entertainment’s two-day gaming convention and community celebration returns to the Anaheim Convention Center on November 3 and 4—but it’s not too early to begin preparations for a weekend full of hands-on gaming, in-depth developer panels, incredible esports competition, and more.

This year, ticket sales will be hosted by Universe, and tickets are priced at $199 each (plus applicable taxes and fees). Check out the BlizzCon Ticket webpage and Badge Information page for all the details.
BlizzCon Benefit Dinner
If you’re looking for a chance to join the celebration and help out a good cause at the same time, we’re holding a special BlizzCon Benefit Dinner the night before the show on Thursday, November 2 in support of Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC). Attendees will have a chance to talk games, swap stories, and share a drink or two with Blizzard developers and community representatives, and Blizzard will donate the net proceeds to the hospital. A limited number of tickets go on sale Wednesday, April 12 at 7:00 p.m. PDT, priced at $750 each—visit the Charity Ticket page for more information.
Virtual Ticket - Coming Soon!
If you can’t make it to the show in person, you’ll still have a chance to join the celebration from home with the BlizzCon Virtual Ticket, which will provide live streaming coverage to viewers around the world. Stay tuned for more details.
Check out the BlizzCon Event Info page for lots more information on prepping for the show and the upcoming ticket sales, and visit the Universe ticket page at the dates and times above to buy tickets to the show.
Look for more information on the events and activities at BlizzCon as the show approaches. Good luck snagging tickets, and we’ll see you in November!
2013 was worth it, a cardback isnt going to cut it, maybe if I played more then starcraft and hearthstone, imo it aint worth it
Always a handful of announcements to look forward to that they hold out till then.
You guys don't need to buy the ticket, but you don't need to be rude as well. I unfortunately cannot afford it.
Honestly is it really worth it to buy the $200 virtual ticket? The goodies they give aren't worth it.
Uh, the virtual tickets typically only go for around $40 each.
They're only like 50 bucks and they have alot of goodies. Watching Blizzcon is pretty cool too.
"$199" /sigh
So who has about $1000+ to burn? I don't so im guna go get the virtual ticket to get those Game prizes.
The real question here is that:Can Blizzard keep its customers happy until then?None can say for sure...
How about making blizzcon in Europe for once? So 'muricans know how it feels to fly to the other half of planet for something they like! Prague would be nice. Its in the center of Europe, so everyone would have it "close"
Try to buy it sooner before they rise the price cause of "market differences.. too bad I am not much of a traveller seems like a lot of fun.. someday I will travel to the USA for blizzcon... one day..
If I'm lucky and fast enough this time, I might get myself a The BlizzCon Benefit Dinner ticked :)
Can't wait to see that virtual ticket cardback
So they're announcing the announcement for the third expansion before announcing the announcement for the second expansion but after the announcement of the first expansion. I think.
Hype!
I hope for the Virtual Ticket the technical issues improved over 2016. There really needs to be a multi-stream platform (without opening multiple browsers).
Most important part is that the developer, ceative, music, art etc. panels are also streamed again. This is the cool stuff :)
Oh, and another promotional card like Elite Tauren Chieftain would be cool, at least something different than just a cardback.
Congrats to Pavel in advance!
You appear to be wrong. Thank you for your incredibly thought-provoking comment.
Really hope that I can get a ticket this year :) Wasn't so lucky last few years..
