Twitch might not be known for its offline prowess, but every year, streamers and their fans gather at a convention center to discuss everything from learning how to shape a stream’s story to meeting their favorite creators.
Let’s talk about this year’s TwitchCon.
What is TwitchCon?
Launched in 2015, TwitchCon is the biggest convention for Twitch creators and streamers and their fans. It brings together creators, influencers, industry professionals, and audiences for panels, performances, meet-and-greets, and behind-the-scenes conversations.
A decade later, people are still showing up.
How much does TwitchCon 2025 cost?
To attend TwitchCon 2025, you’ll have to log in and verify your Twitch account and choose which ticket makes the best sense for you.
A three-day ticket costs $249, but individual day tickets, each costing $169 or $159, depending on the day, are also available. You’ll have to pay a bit more for the TwitchCon Block Party and the Family Bundle.

The panels aren’t livestreamed, but you can follow TwitchCon’s social media accounts on Instagram and X to keep up to date on everything happening during the convention. Plus, Mashable will be there.
What has made TwitchCon controversial in the past?
TwitchCon has been under fire for safety issues time and time again. In 2024, TwitchCon was rife with harassment after Kick streamers crashed the event. In 2022, Twitch streamer Adriana Chechik broke her back after jumping into a foam pit.
According to Tubefilter, Twitch CEO Dan Clancy said: “I want to be very clear; we take security at our events, like TwitchCon, extremely seriously. Every year, we build on successful approaches to TwitchCon safety and security, particularly as we become aware of new or emerging security or safety challenges.”
