BlizzCon 2026 is due to go live on September 12, 2026. The event returns after two years of inactivity, with Blizzard Entertainment back and ready to reveal what's going on in the worlds of Diablo, Overwatch, StarCraft, and Warcraft. BlizzCon 2026 is going to be an opportunity to receive big reveals, hear from the creators, and see what Blizzard communities and competitive players have been up to.
While BlizzCon 2026 is held in-person in Anaheim, California, between September 12 and September 13, if you aren't able to reach the event you needn't worry – the big showcase moments are hosted live online too, meaning you can watch BlizzCon 2026 from the comfort of your home.
