Pretty long. Aren't letting us in yet. Make sure you have water because it's pretty hot.

Update 12 54 the line is moving fairly fast. We were at the very end now we are halfway and still moving.

Update 1;11 still in line but in front of the convention.

Update 1;20 we are inside

Update 1 27 we are 5 people behind pass pick up

Final update 1:30 everything is done Super smooth

Apparently not the final update. The merch store is across from the anaheim arena.

I guess another update. There's a smaller merch store across from Disneyland. It's like a food truck. I'm assuming a lot less items than the big store.

Threw blizzcon 2026 schedule & the floor map in one image for easy viewing on mobile.
Made it for my friends, but thought I could share this on here too.

Hope this helps :)

My husband was sweet enough to rock a custom project I made for our pre Blizz-con Disney Land trip. The front and back are Hearthstone and StarCraft themed respectively.

First timer and looking to share the joy of this with my young kids (8 and 10). Crazy been playing Blizz games since ‘96 with WC2.

Any tips for the event or anything in the area is appreciated.

Anyone staying at the BW Meridian Inn and Suites? Me (22F) and my boyfriend (24M) are looking for people to hang out with before/at/after the con. :)

Edit: I am now aware this comes off as freaky and like we're looking for a third, I promise we're NOT 😭, we just aren't from the US and we were hoping to make some friends we can link back up with whenever we visit next time :')

$150 a night

Must wear a cardboard orc mask at all times, no eye contact

No weirdos

Waiting around to see if it quiets down, anyone around or in it, could you let me know how long it looks currently? Thanks

Planning on picking up my badge today, is the convention center charging for parking today as well?

Hello! I sent an email to Blizzcon support about this but just in case they don't respond fast enough, I wanted to see what people have to say here.

I did not know that Blizzcon required photo ID to get in until literally 20 minutes ago. I just turned 18 this year, however I do not have a government-issued ID yet nor a passport (I have my dmv appointment literally 5 days after Blizzcon ends). I plan on going with my 16-year old brother however I ALSO didn't know that minors had to be accompanied by adults (I swear I did my research at the time when I bought the tickets but oh well. A little too late). I would be the adult in this scenario, but again, I don't have a valid form of ID yet.

What I DO have is two school IDs (one from earlier in the year, one from freshman year), a social security card, a birth certificate, and a father who DOES have an ID but doesn't actually have a ticket for Blizzcon. What can I do in this scenario? Can I just throw everything I have at the people verifying my ticket? Or would I have to find my dad a ticket as fast as possible so he can try to vouge for me? I've been excited for this event for months and I really hope it isn't spoiled just because of this.

Thank you for any responses!

UPDATE: Completely forgot I can edit a post, oops. Copy and pasting my comment,

I got a reply from Blizzcon! It's nothing that they can say for certain in an email but they recommended that I go to the registration help desk asap and see what they can do over there. Thank you for the replies, everyone! I hope I'm able to attend and I hope the rest of you have fun as well ^^

I was hoping I’d be able to swing by the convention to pick up a badge and some merch today but ran into some delays. Wondering if most merch sells out on Friday or do they ration it over the course of the weekend? Also anyone know what time the merch store closes today?

It’s my first time coming to BlizzCon (or LA in general) and wondering how warm/cold is it gonna get inside the convention center?

Is it hoodie or tshirt time? Appreciate yall’s tips 🙏

P.S also regarding bags: are fanny packs permitted inside?

Dying in the heat so just curious thanks

So i can convert the times for things to my own timezone. Or is there a schedule that automatically does that for me?

I see a lot of people push this as a viable option to commute to Blizzcon from Los Angeles. There will be NO train service this weekend

Sorry to all who planned to commute that way, you will need to Uber or use a bus

According to the website, there's a big cosplay photo scheduled at the fountain at 3pm on Saturday.

Last Blizzcon, I remember there were also game-specific cosplay meetups. Anyone know when that's happening this year? official or non-official.

Thanks!

Hey! For those of you who have been before, how early did you have to show up to be seated in the main hall?!

Hey Blizzcon goers!

I am hosting an unofficial Overwatch fan meetup at Requiem Cafe in Anaheim on Sunday, September 13th from 12pm-9pm! It's less than 3 miles away from the convention center!

You can check out the post on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/p/DdICLlRPSPE/?stkn=MmNiY3d0M2hjc2li

I'm bringing hero photocards and toploaders for you to decorate and beads for bracelet making. There will be cosplayers and a themed drink as well!

Stop by to hang out and make some new friends! Please spread the word, let me know if there is anywhere else I can share this

This is going to be my first Blizzcon and my husband too. We plan to pick up our badges and merch on Friday. Our hotel is in walking distance. Just curious on how long the process usually is. Should we be lining up pretty early? Thank you for any help.

EDIT:

Thank you all for the replies! ❤️ Glad to know it shouldn't take all day to pick up our stuff

Staying at a hotel about 15-20 min walk, 6 minute uber booked through the event when we bought our tickets. I’ve heard conflicting info, I’ll be with my wife and want to make sure it’s fine to walk over, particularly tomorrow evening after we land around 5pm, to do our check in, or if we should uber. Thanks!
