Blizzard has sent 'round an official press release announcing the BlizzCon 2007 gaming festival. The two-day convention will kick off this Friday, August 3 at the Anaheim Convention Center.

"We received an overwhelming response to our first BlizzCon in 2005, and weÂ’ve looked forward to being able to come back and spend another weekend with our players ever since," said Mike Morhaime, president and co-founder of Blizzard Entertainment.

"Our employees and our partners have worked hard to make this a memorable experience for the attendees, and weÂ’re hoping everyone truly enjoys the show."

This year's event will feature two days of gaming, contests, developer Q&A panels, and tournaments, as well as the first-ever chance for the gaming public to play StarCraft II. The show will conclude with performances by comedian Jay Mohr, Video Games Live, and World of Warcraft-themed rock band Level 70 Elite Tauren Chieftain. Blizzard's global staffing team will also be on hand to accept materials and discuss any job-related questions.
