    Twitch tipped its hand a bit when it announced that its community meet-up/education expo TwitchCon 2016 would be moving to the roomier climes of the San Diego Convention Center. Now live-streaming behemoth is ready to reveal why it needed all that extra space: The plan is for more of everything. Namely, panels. In the past few months, Twitch Creative has blown up, expanding beyond Deadmau5 making beats and into streaming classic episodes of Bob Ross' painting series and Julia Child's cooking shows. TwitchCon 2016 will reflect that by offering special spaces for the Creative community to interact with each other and even do some arts and crafts.

    TwitchCon is heading south. Following the broadcasting service's inaugural fan meetup/streaming workshop/Deadmau5 concert at San Francisco's Moscone Center last year, it's heading to San Diego and that city's convention center for a second event with a fair bit more elbow room. The venue isn't the only thing that's changing, however. TwitchCon 2016 will also take place a bit later on the calendar and last a day longer -- September 30th through October 2nd versus 2015's September 25th and 26th.
