    This just in-

    it appears that Blizzard Entertainment‘s seemingly defunct convention BlizzCon is coming back after several years.

    The event will be taking place September 12th-13th, 2026 in Anaheim, CA.

    We expect to learn more in the coming weeks about what Blizzard has in store for fans.

    From Blizzard’s website:

    We’ve come a long way since our first event in 2005. Over the past nearly 20 years since its inception, BlizzCon has inspired us to innovate, push the boundaries of creativity, and deliver once-in-a-lifetime moments. It’s important that we put on an event worthy of our community. For 2026, alongside BlizzCon staples like Opening Ceremony, in-depth panels, the Darkmoon Faire, friendly competition, hands-on gameplay, and more, we aim to meaningfully elevate this iconic celebration and create an unforgettable experience for all who take part in it. We are building this event just like we build our games: with a deep commitment to our players, with respect for your connections to our universes, and as a celebration of the strength of the bonds formed through shared adventure.  

    The road to BlizzCon starts here. We can’t wait to share more with you as our plans take shape. Visit BlizzCon.com and sign up to receive BlizzCon updates: be among the first to know when tickets go on sale, and get access to BlizzCon news, special offers, and updates.
