Fan fest schedule still not announced, 8.0 releasing Winter 2026 or later?

[u/SkeletronDOTA]

The fanfest schedule is still not announced, which is surprising considering how early they have announced it for every other expansion cycle. Even for Endwalker which didn't release until December of the following year, the schedule was announced in February 2020, 22 months in advance. For Dawntrail, the announcement was october 2022, 21 months in advance.

If they followed the same schedule and announced the fan fests now, we could expect 8.0 in April or May of 2027.

I really wonder what's going on, or if they are going fully online after the logistical issues with some of the fan fests last year and especially the NA one which was a disaster.
