Twitch has officially announced plans for TwitchCon in 2022, revealing the locations and months the live-streaming convention will take place. Here’s everything we know, including how to buy tickets to attend.
Normally held twice a year, TwitchCon typically holds an event in North America and Europe to celebrate some of the platform’s streamers and communities. It hosts a wide range of activities to experience such as meet and greets, panels, and Twitch Rivals tournaments.
While both events were replaced for GlitchCon in 2020 due to global health concerns, followed up by the cancellation of the event in 2021, they have released their plans to hold the events in 2022.

How to buy tickets to Twitchcon San Diego
At the time of writing, Twitch has not made tickets available for San Diego. We’ll be sure to update this article when they do.
The event often hosts tournament events for some of the biggest streamers and pro players in esports, in 2019 they held a Fortnite tournament.
It was not without its issues though, as NICKMERCS threatened to leave over tournament problems, someone tried to fight Pokimane, and xQc got kicked out of a party.
The conference is the main event for fans to meet their favorites and for Twitch to make big announcements on the future of the platform. It’s also always packed for both European and North American events.
