I wonder if they are bringing back D&D Live

So, only six months. That’s sooner than we thought.

I would guess Monday, March 2nd seems like a good day for that!

WotC is going to drop it just as the servers come up for the new WoW expansion, just so my wife gets irritated with me.

Margaret Weis apparently posted that we would hear more in August about that Dragonlance gathering at WotC last year, I assume this is related

London seems a bit of an odd choice for something as American as Dragonlance, but who knows?

It's the name of a large arena. It was where Dimension20 sold out IIRC

If I were WotC and I saw Critical Role and Dimension 20 selling out Madison Square Garden, the Hollywood Bowl and comparable sites internationally, I would 100% be interested in starting up something similar, either with the Baldur's Gate 3 voice actors (who they are bringing out for a lot of stuff) or with Abria Iyengar, who apparently doesn't ever need to sleep.
