In-Person Attendance

Tickets to Northrend Live are free and available on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last.

To ensure as many in-person adventurers as possible can experience Northrend Live, two types of tickets will be available.

Free VIP Admission
A limited number of ticket holders will receive full-day access to Illuminarium Toronto from 11 am– 6 pm EST, a free swag bag (while supplies last), and the ability to watch the entire stream from start to finish (entry and exit allowed).

Free General Admission
If you didn't score VIP tickets, general admission is time-slotted. Three time-slot windows will be available to book tickets for Northrend Live.

If you miss out on grabbing a ticket in advance, you can still visit Northrend Live in person on the day of the event. We'll be welcoming adventurers to queue up for the event throughout the day, as venue capacity allows.

Hmm...Canada is a frozen unlivable hell like Northrend, it's just a little punComment by N0083rP00FThe first thing that popped into my head was - Where TF is the Illuminarium ?

Distillery district .... That is a bit of a hoof and a half east from Union Station and nowhere near a subway stop ... That means the GO for me as I know just how F'ed up the roads are in that area before having to deal with the half-assed snow removal the city is now known for.

The last time Blizz was in Canada was a few years back with a HUGE booth at the Anime/Comic Expo at the end of the summer.
It was dark, near empty, the lone rep was hiding somewhere leaving everything to the local booth babes/dude who most likely got a basic orientation and that was it. Zero swag. Result - empty dark zone with the few stations playing OW.

The frozen unlivable hell was last week, or a normal Tuesday in Winnipeg. YMMVComment by Bbbbx"Canada is a frozen unlivable hell like Northrend, it's just a little pun."

What? It hit 61F here today, didn't even need a jacket! Beach weather!Comment by cartoonbenVery pleased to see a Canadian event :) I think I'll go, if I can get a ticket!https://discord.gg/6C6SMZjwComment by MothlightVIP was gone in a single second. I'm happy to snag the timeslot tickets but Blizzard seriously needs a different ticketing system for these events.Comment by N0083rP00FIt's after 3pm EST and site is still not active .....

Well Bugger - my webpage says Available soon.
What a load of $%^&e.

Blizz doesn't fail to disapoint.Comment by KaygeeWierd thing about TIXR is it doesnt autol-refresh the page when the tix become available, you have to re-enter the site. That said, the VIPs were gone in less than 5 seconds, and no, I didn't get one.Comment by BurzgulNext one should be in Australia, call it the Silithus safari.Comment by BurzgulWierd thing about TIXR is it doesnt autol-refresh the page when the tix become available, you have to re-enter the site.

They already know where everyone lives, so locals get an invitation to enter the draw.
Easy Peasy and non-transferable prevents scalpers,Comment by GabeNoodleIf anyone got VIP and decides not to go or wants to sell. Im looking for my wife and I for our anniversary.
