Blizzard Announces Six New Warcraft Conventions

Blizzard's Warcraft 30th Anniversary World Tour: A Global Celebration

Blizzard Entertainment is commemorating three decades of Warcraft with a worldwide tour featuring six fan conventions. These intimate gatherings, scheduled between February 22nd and May 10th, will offer a unique blend of live entertainment, exclusive activities, and opportunities to connect with Warcraft developers.

Unlike BlizzCon, which Blizzard skipped in 2024, this tour focuses on creating memorable experiences rather than major announcements. The events celebrate past milestones, including World of Warcraft's 20th anniversary, Hearthstone's 10th, and Warcraft Rumble's first year.

The tour kicks off in London (February 22nd) and continues to Seoul, Toronto, Sydney, Sao Paulo, and culminates in Boston during PAX East (May 10th).

Warcraft 30th Anniversary World Tour Dates:

• February 22 – London, United Kingdom
• March 8 – Seoul, South Korea
• March 15 – Toronto, Canada
• April 3 – Sydney, Australia
• April 19 – Sao Paulo, Brazil
• May 10 – Boston, United States (during PAX East)

While details remain scarce, the events promise live performances, special activities, and developer meet-and-greets. Importantly, attendance is expected to be free but strictly limited. Information on how to secure these coveted free tickets will be released through regional Warcraft channels. Keep an eye on your local Warcraft community for updates!

The future of BlizzCon remains uncertain. While a late summer/early autumn BlizzCon could showcase the upcoming World of Warcraft: Midnight expansion, including player housing, Blizzard's decision to forgo BlizzCon in 2024 leaves the possibility of a biennial event open. Regardless, the Warcraft 30th Anniversary World Tour presents a fantastic opportunity for fans to celebrate the franchise's rich history.
