BlizzCon tickets are on their way for the second time; tomorrow! On May 30th, Blizzard will put their final load of BlizzCon tickets on the market for anyone who is quick enough to buy. To make sure ticket sales go 'smoothly', Blizzard has installed a Ticket Queue System, which can be accessed at the Blizzard Store. A quick rundown has been stated to help any lost buyers:

  • Create a Battle.net Account
  • We highly recommend you create a free Battle.net account before ticket sales begin, if you haven’t done so already. Please make sure the payment information associated with the account is up-to-date by going to My Payment Options in Battle.net Account Management. Doing these things ahead of time will help speed up the purchasing process for you once tickets go on sale.

  • Entering the Queue
  • If a certain level of shopping activity has been reached on the Blizzard Store, you will enter a queue before you are able to check out and complete your purchase. The ticket queue allows controlled batches of visitors to smoothly purchase tickets on a first-come, first-served basis.

    On the days BlizzCon tickets go on sale, you will be able to initiate a ticket-purchase request from a special streamlined ticket-sales starting page, which will be linked from our websites and forums. From this starting page, you’ll be able to select the number of tickets you want to buy from a drop-down menu, and then click a button to immediately enter the ticket queue.

    If you don’t encounter a queue, you will be able to purchase the tickets immediately.

  • In the Queue
  • Once you’ve entered the queue, you will be redirected to a page which displays an estimate of the time remaining until you reach the front of the queue, along with a meter showing the percentage of ticket stock remaining, updated in real-time. Simply wait at this page (do not close the window or refresh your browser!) until you reach the front of the queue. . Please note that being in the queue does not guarantee that you will have the opportunity to purchase a ticket. The system will inform you if tickets sell out before you reach the front of the queue.

  • Finalizing Your Purchase
  • When your number is called, it’s time to buy those tickets! You will have 15 minutes to finalize all details before your session times out and you are removed from the queue, at which point you would need to begin the process again. If you are unsure of any attendee information now, don’t worry -- you won’t need to provide this information until after the ticket purchase is finalized.

So this is your last day to hesitate, Blizzard fans! This grand event takes place in the Anaheim Convention Center on August 21 and 22 and each ticket costs 125$ [USD].
