Oh no, Blizzard isn’t going to be happy with the people who run the Las Vegas Convention Centre website. According to the official site of the convention centre, Blizzard’s annual BlizzCon, the company’s own expo, will be hosted by the convention centre in Sin City. The site also mentioned the sought-after expo will not only be in Vegas, but take place on the 30th and 31st of July in 2010.
This past summer BlizzCon was held inside the confines of the Anaheim Convention Center in California, which has a size of about 800,000 square feet.
