In the BlizzCon 2018 press release, Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment commented about the BlizzCon Virtual Ticket.

“We created BlizzCon as a celebration of our global community, but not everyone can travel to the show, so the Virtual Ticket gives us a great way to bring BlizzCon to gamers around the world,” said Morhaime. “We have a lot of exciting activities and surprises planned for BlizzCon ticket and Virtual Ticket holders in the coming weeks and at the main event—we can’t wait to share everything we have in store.”

BlizzCon 2018 kicks off with an esports competition during the BlizzCon Opening Week on October 25 through October 29 at Blizzard Arena Los Angeles in Burbank, California. The main BlizzCon 2018 event takes place on Friday, November 2 and Saturday, November 3 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim California.
