World of Warcraft® Classic BlizzCon® Demo
Every BlizzCon, we look for opportunities to bring new aspects of the experience to our community around the world. This year, we’re excited to announce that for the first time ever, BlizzCon Virtual Ticket holders will join BlizzCon attendees as the first people to play the World of Warcraft Classic demo we’re creating for BlizzCon at home.

Shortly after the BlizzCon opening ceremony on November 2 (on or around 1pm PDT), players will be able to download the same in-development BlizzCon WoW Classic Demo that will be playable on the show floor. Players will have a chance to explore and enjoy a limited questing experience through a pair of classic early-level zones—one Horde and one Alliance—and experience firsthand our recreation of the original Azeroth.

Once the demo is live, you’ll be able to play until 10am PST on November 8, giving BlizzCon attendees a chance to check it out again once they get back home.

Declare Your Allegiance With BlizzCon In-Game Loot
In addition to access to the BlizzCon WoW Classic Demo, starting today BlizzCon attendees and Virtual Ticket holders will receive commemorative in-game items that will help them proudly display their Horde or Alliance pride as the Battle for Azeroth rages on:

  • War Mantle of the Alliance & War Mantle of the Horde: Show all of Azeroth where your allegiance lies with a pair of faction-themed cosmetic cloaks—one for Horde characters, and one for Alliance.
  • Stormwind Champion’s War Banner & Orgrimmar Hero’s War Banner: Strike fear into your enemies and stand your ground when you plant your faction’s banner on the battlefield.

In addition to this year’s WoW items and access to the BlizzCon WoW Classic demo, the Virtual Ticket provides plenty of great BlizzCon content for your viewing pleasure along with additional in-game goodies from Overwatch®, Diablo® III, Hearthstone®, Heroes of the Storm®, and StarCraft® II.

    I feel sorry how much Blizz abuses WoW playerbase lately.

    Even the cloaks and banners have more value than classic demo. Don't see the need for 10 dollars extra for that.
    There is nothing of higher value than a classic demo. You should be super happy. Now, show some appriciation.

    Cloaks still looks like a flat-back carpet, doesnt look fantasy-esque at all. LUL

    All the panels are on YouTube and Twitch right away, and mmo-champ, wowhead, etc, take so many pictures that if you scroll through them really fast you can watch the whole thing at like 5fps.

    Eh, not gonna pay that money for a demo of classic. Wish there was a cool mount instead. I'll just read the updates here, unless there is gonna be a new diablo.

    Wait, no pet this year? That is a drastic change. hmmm.

    Classic access...two starter zones one for each faction. Starter zones people. Like the absolute worst part of the leveling experience available for a couple weeks. This is a serious step back for the virtual ticket.

    Played the original. I am not really cheering for the museum opening. I find it neat, but I would find a new mount cooler.

    Yeah a demo that probably is set in Elwynn forest, kill 10 defias bandits, kill 10 boars, kill Hogger. Several classes don't even get a decent attack untill level 10, heck Rogues can't even dual wield untill level 10.

    Well put me in an oven and bake me for 30 minutes!
    That explains why the pice got up!

    Well, yeah. But if you care about classic, you're excited about that. If you don't, you're not.
