CLUB LOUNGE EAST & WEST

Gen Con continues to expand and fill up more of the Stadium as we take over both Club Lounges this year.

Last year, AEG’s famous Big Game Night filled up the Club Lounge East and in 2023 it is joined by the Everdell 5th Anniversary Championship Tournament and the NA-C Regional License Exam for My Hero Academia.

The Club Lounge West will be open all convention-long to host events from Game Base 7, running a wide variety of board, card, and roleplaying games.

Both Club Lounges are accessible along the Concourse at street level from the North Plaza entrance as well as from stairs on the Field up to the stadium seats. Come check out the new space!

Deluxe Rpg Suites

Have you ever wanted to watch a football game from a private suite in a stadium? How about play an RPG from one, overlooking the Stadium Field with all of the board games filling it up? We’re experimenting with opening some suites up for individual RPG use this year and really want feedback from attendees about the experience!

Check out the dozen or so suites we’ve scheduled this year with RPGs (and other events that really benefit from private rooms) and let us know what you think. Would you like to play some games there? Would you like to run some games in them? Imagine what it might be like with more RPGs ringing the entire stadium.

To get to the Suites, take the elevator near Meeting Room 12 to the Lower Suite level and they’re just ahead down the hall.

Event Registration And Customer Service

The Event HQ is on the Stadium Field, and you can both purchase event tickets and get help from Customer Service, including returning event tickets, so you don’t need to head back to Main Registration in the Convention Center.

The HQ is open 7 am to midnight daily (4 pm on Sunday).
