WonderCon Anaheim is pleased to announce the addition of the Red Bull Presents ESports & “We Are” Diversity Lounge, which will be open all weekend long in the new Anaheim Convention Center North building in Room 155.

Red Bull makes an exciting entrance to WonderCon Anaheim, presenting the first stage in integrating ESports and Pro Gaming into the Comic-Con International world!

In this brand new event space, Red Bull will offer gaming stations spotlighting gameplay in a tournament format, charging stations, and a lounge area that will also introduce the “We Are” diversity in gaming and tech campaign (produced in cooperation with the ESA Foundation). We invite you to come in and play games, immerse yourself in the world of ESports and the life of a pro-gamer, meet the Wings team and learn more about Red Bull, as well as more about the women who are game-changers in tech in the “We Are” Gallery. Part of this inaugural celebration will include some fun giveaways!
