Blizzard is devoted to providing the best possible experience for all our BlizzCon attendees. During the convention, we provide accommodations for individuals with disabilities, including:
TL;DR: If you need info on navigating BlizzCon with a disability, email BlizzCon@Blizzard.com and we’ll help make sure your experience is epic.
We want everyone at BlizzCon to feel like they're part of one big Blizzard family. To help make that happen, we ask that everyone at the show be respectful and courteous to their fellow attendees.
If you witness or experience any activity that puts someone's safety or enjoyment of the show at risk, inform a security guard or Blizzard employee (BlizzCon staff will be wearing "BlizzCon Crew" shirts at this year's show) and let them know. We have escalation procedures in place to handle these kinds of situations, and we can take the appropriate action from there.
