ExileCon 2026 Set for November: Stream Times, Keynote, and Final Ticket Batch Detailed

What changed#

Grinding Gear Games has announced new details for ExileCon 2026, which takes place on November 7 and 8 NZT (November 6 and 7 PST). The convention will broadcast live for free on both YouTube and Twitch via the official Path of Exile channel, starting at 12<00> PM PST on both days. The main keynote presentation will begin at 1<00> PM PST.

The event program includes developer panels, live podcasts featuring Path of Exile content creators, major reveals, and race finales for both games. Co-streaming is allowed, and Grinding Gear Games confirmed that new Twitch Drops will be available during the event, with details to be shared in the coming weeks.

For in-person attendees, a very limited batch of additional tickets is currently available for purchase. The full schedule will be finalized and released in a couple of weeks, along with attendee information covering cosplay policies and a streamer code of conduct. The developer also hinted that teasers for the event will arrive soon.

Why it matters#

ExileCon 2026 marks a major milestone for the franchise, serving as the central hub for major announcements regarding both games. The addition of developer panels and competitive race finales offers deep dives into game systems and top-tier play, while free streams, co-streaming support, and Twitch Drops ensure the broader online community can participate in the reveal event.

What to do next#

Players hoping to attend the physical venue in New Zealand should check ticket availability immediately due to limited quantities. Remote viewers can mark their calendars for November 6 at 12<00> PM PST to catch the start of the stream on Twitch or YouTube, with the keynote following at 1<00> PM PST. Content creators planning to cover the event can prepare their streams ahead of time, while attendees should monitor official updates over the next two weeks for the full schedule, cosplay policy, and event conduct guidelines.
