General Info

The Penny Arcade Expo is a three-day game festival for tabletop, videogame, and PC gamers, thrown by the people behind Penny Arcade. It is called a festival because in addition to dedicated tournaments and freeplay areas there are nerdcore concerts, panel discussions, the weekend-long Omegathon event, and an exhibitor hall filled with booths displaying the latest from top game publishers and developers. Even with all this amazing content the best part of PAX is hanging out with other people who know their shit when it comes to games. [1]

It will be held September 4th through 6th 2009 at the Washington State Convention and Trade Center in downtown Seattle, Washington.
