Mark your calendars Blizzcon Tickets on Sale May 16th

Blizzard’s annual convention will be held on August 21 and 22 in Anaheim, California. A ticket to Blizzcon will cost $125.
To avoid last year’s ticket sales disaster, Blizzard has setup a queue system to ensure the website isn’t overwhelmed by hordes of visitors. And if you miss your chance to snag a ticket on May 16th, you’ll get a second chance on May 30th.
For those of you who won’t be able to make the trip, you’ll be able to watch Blizzcon from the comfort of your own home.
Due to its popularity last year, the DIRECTV® BlizzCon Pay Per View event will return in 2009, available to existing DIRECTV customers for $39.95 USD. The event will again deliver a minimum of eight hours of live HD coverage from the show floor on each day of the convention, including exclusive interviews, demos, and more. In addition, gamers around the world who are unable to attend BlizzCon will for the first time be able to purchase the Pay Per View event as an Internet stream, also priced at $39.95 USD (pricing may vary by region). DIRECTV customers who order the televised event will receive this Internet stream at no extra charge, allowing them to watch in the format of their choice. Anyone who orders the event will also receive this year’s BlizzCon-exclusive World of Warcraft® in-game item — to be revealed at a later date.
