PAX Unplugged is an exciting analog-focused extension of their already existing various PAX events. The tabletop parts of PAX grew to the point where they decided to make a dedicated convention for it.

Exhibit Hall

This hall is packed with exhibitors ranging from AAA publishers and developers behind the latest blockbuster games, to the innovative indie teams disrupting the industry.

Panels

The best way to learn about the panels is to check out our schedule page, typically opened about a month before showtime. We strive to see all aspects of culture and the gaming community represented in our theatres.


Performances

If you ever need to take a break from gaming, be sure to check out our assortment of performances, featuring the likes of Acquisitions Incorporated and other leading actual-play RPG groups.


Tournaments

PAX features a full schedule of tournaments highlighting games from all genres and platforms. Expect the full schedule about a month before each event.


RPGs

Continue epic campaigns or embark on a new one in this quieter area dedicated to RPG play. All players welcome, from beginner to expert. Games range from on-demand indie RPGs to organized play sessions for the most popular RPG systems. PAX’s RPG areas also feature loads of freeplay space for pick-up games, organized LARPs, and even a classic RPG library!


Tabletop Freeplay

Open seating across hundreds of tables, and a lending library stocked with thousands of games. Need more players? Stop by the LFG (Looking for Group) Zone or check out the Social Game Zone. Want to try something unique? The Giant Game Zone has got you covered.


Miniatures Area

There’s nothing diminutive about the Miniatures Area, where our terrain tables are ready to host your army for pick-up matches and tournaments for most popular games. Let your artistic side shine in our free Paint & Take Zone, or try your hand at a painting contest.

Classic Cardboard

A whirlwind of tabletop gaming from the ‘90s on back. Classic Cardboard covers everything from family game night nostalgia to that one old CCG you barely remember.
