Relaxed weekend for geeks to be geeks about the things they geek about with other geeks
There's a huge number of geeky vendors with stuff to look at and buy. There are panels on a variety of topics (schedule releasing soon). There are clubs and groups, from the local LEGO builders' club to R2NL (they build R2 droids, etc.) and others.
We'll have a number of rhythm games from Beat Saber to DDR to Rock Band. A Zombie shooting game with light guns. We'll finally have our own version of Cardhalla happening, the cards are on the way and thousands more are being donated.
There are games to play from a library of board games to video games and people to play them with. And that part there, the people, lots of people of all ages enjoying the different geeky things they like together and meeting and making new friends. That's probably the best part of all. And it's a carnival atmosphere with more besides.
