When we founded PAX, we were always careful to carve out a part of the show for Tabletop games. It’s always been a part of the convention people could define for themselves, make new friends, and it would be hard to count the number of games who had their start at those tables.
It’s a point of pride for us that no matter how much space we give it, the Tabletop section of any show always fills up. Eventually, we had to realize that this part of PAX had its own identity and its own culture inside the larger continuum, and we wanted to give it a place to stretch out a bit. Welcome to PAX Unplugged.
WHAT IS PAX UNPLUGGED?
PAX Unplugged will be an exciting analog-focused extension of our already existing portfolio of PAX events. We’ve found that the Tabletop parts of PAX have grown and grown to the point where we said, “You know what? Let’s make a show that’s just that.”
CONTENT FOR ALL AGES
PAX Unplugged is an event specifically tailored to gamers of all ages. All of the content throughout the show is meant to be enjoyed by the entire family all weekend and what’s more, Sunday’s offerings are specifically set up to appeal to our younger gamers in attendance. It’s with that in mind that we will also be offering a Sunday Kid’s Day badge for anyone under 12.
