PAX Unplugged 2024
2024-12-06 - 2024-12-08 | Pennsylvania Convention Center, 1101 Arch St, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 19107, United States
PAX Unplugged is a tabletop gaming-focused event specifically tailored to lovers of board games, RPGs, miniatures, cards, and more. Featuring thought-provoking panels, a massive expo hall filled with the best publishers and studios, new game demos, tournaments, and a community experience unlike any other.
From our humble beginnings, PAX has doubled in size each year until it hit venue capacities. At that point, they partnered with Reed Exhibitions and started bringing PAX to other cities around the world including Boston, San Antonio, Philadelphia, and Melbourne, Australia.
Over the years, PAX has evolved with the times: embracing the cutting edge of technology with VR Freeplay, reaching out across the full spectrum of gamers via our Diversity Lounge, and building up immense game libraries for every genre and platform. Despite this, they’ve stayed true to our roots and a pretty surprising amount of what makes PAX what it is today existed way back in 2004. Freeplay, Tournaments, Enforcers, Expo Hall, Concerts, Panels, and the Omegathon…it was all there. Just, y’know, on a much different scale.
PAX Unplugged came about after realizing that the tabletop sections at the original PAX shows kept growing and growing! The first PAX Unplugged took place November 17-19, 2017.

Concerts – For the first time in Unplugged history, we’re bringing you musicians to boost your charisma points tenfold, and the best part is the concert is included with your badge – no extra ticket required!
Crokinole Zone – Our fandom of Crokinole goes back to 2012 when we used the game in the Final Round of our PAX East Omegathon, but we’ve never really had the means to create an entire department dedicated to the quirky Canadian game…UNTIL NOW.
Expo Hall – This is the place to be to see the latest tabletop designers and publishers collected for your enjoyment!
First Look – Learn, play, and shop for the buzziest games from around the world. Most games in First Look have yet to be released in North America, but are imported fresh for PAX.

Learn & Play – Get your primer on modern board gaming as the hobby’s leading YouTube and podcast personalities teach you their favorite games. Learn how to play, and then enjoy a full session of each game.

Whether you count yourself among the under-represented, or just want to learn a little more about your friends, the PAX Together Intersection is well worth a visit.
Panels – We strive to elevate all aspects of the culture around gaming, and perhaps nowhere is that more evident than our panels, with the full schedule available about a month prior to each event.
