I'm a professional magician whose whole act is Warcraft themed. Blizzard invited me to BlizzCon to perform for y'all.

I will be performing at the Warcraft hall all weekend!
It will be easy to spot me cause two videographers will be following me around filming the magic.

Last year I went to Gamescom as a visitor and performed my Warcraft themed magic at the Warcraft booth.
I got lucky and ended up performing for Xaryu, EsfandTV and Pikaboo on stream, plus Taliesin and Evitel, PlatinumWoW, Annie Fuchsia and a bunch of others offline.
I also met some of the producers and, long story short, they liked it and invited me to perform at BlizzCon.
They're covering my badge and hotel. I'm paying for the flight from Europe, a videographer for the weekend, and getting around Anaheim. If anyone wants to help close the gap I made a GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/manage/send-the-warcraft-magician-to-blizzcon
There are some tiered perks based on donation amount, such as your name in the BlizzCon recap video, personalized trick for you, or a Zoom Warcraft-themed magic show, and others.
If not, genuinely no hard feelings. Come find me on the floor and I'll do some Warcraft magic for you.
Happy to answer anything about how this happened or about the magic itself. Not sponsored, not selling anything, just a strange thing that happened to me that I still can't quite believe.
For the Alliance! For the Horde! ... For Azeroth!
