“BlizzCon” is a convention held by Blizzard Entertainment to celebrate and promote their major franchises: Warcraft, StarCraft and Diablo. The first BlizzCon was held in October 2005 at the Anaheim Convention Center where it has been held since. The convention features game-related announcements, previews of upcoming games and content, Q&A sessions and panels, costume and other contests, and playable versions of various Blizzard games. The closing night has featured concerts by The Offspring, Tenacious D, Foo Fighters, Ozzy Osbourne, and Blizzard’s in-house band, currently known as Level 90 Elite Tauren Chieftain (previously Level 10, 60, 70, 80 and “The Artists Formerly Known as Level 80” Elite Tauren Chieftain).
