Gen Con Indy 2012: No Game Left Behind


The Best Four Days in Gaming Have Arrived!


Gen Con Is Here!

After months of hard work and planning, it is Gen Con’s great pleasure to be back in Indianapolis to host this weekend’s 45th Anniversary show, Gen Con Indy 2012! The team hopes to see you here at the Indiana Convention Center for the show's 10th Anniversary in Indianapolis.

If you are still interested in attending but have yet to make preparations, badges are still available through online purchase at registration.gencon.com and also on-site at the convention center. Those that already have purchased their badges may begin picking them up today via on-site Will Call, which will remain open all night on Wednesday, so if you arrive late, you may still receive your Gen Con badge on-site on Wednesday evening/Thursday morning.

Those that have read Gen Con’s past newsletters will know the vast number of things happening at the show. In addition to more than 8,500 gaming events, the show will feature media guests, seminars, live music, crafting, dance entertainment, the largest True Dungeon event in the show’s history, an art show, the debut of Star Trek Catan, the inaugural World Magic Cup, Wizards of the Coast’s first-ever Gen Con keynote speech for Dungeons & Dragons, Gen Con’s first official beer tapping, a film festival, anime, author seminars and book signings, and much, much more.

If you plan to attend the show with children and have yet to purchase badges, Sunday’s Family Fun Day events are the perfect opportunity for your whole family to partake in the Gen Con experience at the low price of $30 for a family of four. Sunday will feature many kid-centric events such as face-painting, learn-to-play gaming, and more!

Thanks go out to all of amazing attendees, exhibitors, sponsors and volunteers for making each Gen Con a special, unique, unforgettable event. The Gen Con team cannot wait to see you this year.
