Blizzard Entertainment’s official gaming convention, BlizzCon, took place over the weekend (between November 3 and 5). Since the event, numerous fans who attended have taken to social media to complain about the enormous queues and what’s they describe as “poor management”.
BlizzCon 2023 was the first in-person BlizzCon to run since 2019, and general admission tickets cost fans $299 - up from the $229 ticket price back in 2019. Additionally, ‘Portal Pass’ tickets were sold for $799 (up from $550 in 2019) which offered attendees access to an exclusive lounge (promising private concessions, gaming experiences, employee meet and greets and more), as well as a separate security and registration line and early entry to the lounge on Friday and Saturday.
