Sorry folks, no April Fools jokes from us this year since we doubt we could top the one pulled on us in March. Who needs pranks when reality is this unpredictable? ;)

Expect very real announcements soon!

Exhibitor Update!
The application portal for exhibitors is now live! We thank you for your patience. Visit www.pittsburghgamingexpo.com to apply!

PGX2024 Exhibitor Update

We are in the process of reworking the application portal for vendors, developers, artists and anyone else looking to apply to vend their goods at the show. We will be announcing more info on when these go open very soon, but thank you for your continued interest in bringing your efforts to the expo! Make sure you enable notifications to ensure you see these updates.

Thank you!

PGX 2024 Venue Update:

It's been a whirlwind couple of weeks for PGX, and we're pleased to announce that we will be staying right here at our original home— the Monroeville Convention Center— for this year's Expo on October 4-6.

While we're still in the process of finalizing details, we're excited for the future of the Expo and the ground-swell of support for Monroeville as the home of this venue. We love this town and the venue that gave us our start, and we're happy to see state and local leaders, members of the community, and convention attendees like you rally so hard to rescue this place.

Likewise, a special shout-out to the local businesses, sponsors, exhibitors and volunteers who immediately began to try and help the show continue with as minimal interruption as possible.

We'll have more to announce soon! Thanks for sticking by us as we work to put on the largest, longest and most exciting Pittsburgh Gaming Expo to date!

PGX24 Update
---
We just wanted to take a moment and let everyone know that we're aware of the situation regarding the Monroeville Convention Center, and as of last week, we had already started conversations with other venues in the area to ensure we have a location for the 2024 Pittsburgh Gaming Expo.

There is a mad dash to find replacement accommodations for all sorts of events that have been displaced by this situation, and the time table to have a specific answer is somewhat up-in-the-air at the moment. But as it stands, we believe that no news is good news. Our mission is to keep this as simple and seamless of a transition as possible, and to keep the costs for our attendees and exhibitors as human-oriented as possible.

The moment we can confirm any information about the situation, we will make sure you're informed as well. We appreciate your patience in this matter, and with any luck, it'll be a fast and easy fix and we'll get back to gaming like normal in the Fall.

Thanks for being part of the Pittsburgh Gaming Community, and for all of the support and outreach you've shown to help make sure the show is safe. It's humbling, and we're thrilled to work together to find a new home for the expo.

We'll talk soon.

50 years of epic adventures!

The PGX crew is in the TORG GAMING EXPO 2023!!! HOUSE! Don't miss this event!

It's been a week since Pittsburgh Gaming Expo (PGX 2023) transformed the Monroeville Convention Center into a celebration of gaming. The outpouring of love we have seen on social media in the past week has been epic and touches the heart of everyone that puts countless hours of work into making this thing happen.

Huge thanks to everyone on the PGX team who kept this event running throughout the year and during the show. Without your support this wouldn't be possible.

Shoutout our friends & sponsors who helped make this year unlike any we have had before.

Finally a huge thanks to all of our amazing exhibitors, Game Masters, panel hosts, and entertainment guests who really packed this weekend with content. We can't wait to do it again in 2024! We gained a whole lot of XP this year... What will we level up next year? Stay tuned for more updates!

Sincerely,
~ Wizz

Wishing our friends in Syracuse NY an amazing RetroGameCon weekend! If you are in the area make sure to check them out. They run an amazing show!

If you didn't get to try our beer collaboration with Cinderlands Beer Co this past weekend at the convention, fear not! They are still serving it at both of their locations and you can even pick up some 4 packs of these limited edition cans!

And that's a wrap!

Unfortunately due to events beyond Stephen's control he will be unable to join us at PGX 2023. The crew of Bob World Builder & Dungeon Masterpiece will still be doing his panel "What Can Dungeon Masters Learn From Video Games, tomorrow at 3:00 pm.

It approaches!
