There will also be the Dragonriding Relay, which will involve four teams racing and battling on dragonback. Each team will have one celebrity contestant plus four community participants.

Of course, day one of the World of Warcraft Variety Show will not be complete without an expedition throughout the Dragon Isles. A total of 200 players from both the North American and European regions will test their ability to find the fastest path through the leveling zones. Since spots are limited for this expedition, players are encouraged to sign up as soon as possible.
