Hello everyone! After 2 long years of pandemic NymbLAN is finally making a grand comeback, this time larger and more ambitious than ever!

What is NymbLAN? It is a LAN-party organized in Nymble, by students for students. Video games will of course be a big part of it, but we also want those of you who don't like gaming to feel welcome. That is why we will also give some spotlight to board games, role playing, karaoke and much more. There is truly something for everyone so don't hesitate before buying your ticket! It’s going to be epic!
A LAN-party is an event where people bring their own computers, both desktops and laptops, to the same location to play different video games together. For NymbLAN we will host the LAN in Nya Matsalen and provide the possibility to sleep over. The event lasts for almost two days and there will be tons of activities during the entire weekend.
THS central is organizing this along with our subgroups, union associations and chapters. Together we are a diverse group with tons of different expertise which enables us to bring crazy amounts of fun to this awesome weekend. Tournaments will be organized in League of Legends, Counter Strike, Magic the Gathering, Minecraft, Super Smash Bros, Starcraft 2 and Beatsaber VR. We will also host activities such as tabletop role-playing games, board games and chess. Here are some answers to the most common questions we have gotten about NymbLAN so far!
Will there be alcohol at the event? No, there won’t be any alcohol at the event. NymbLAN proudly presents a safe environment free from alcohol and drugs where everyone is welcome as they are. There will be soda, snacks, smaller meals and energy drinks available!
I don’t have a computer, can I still come?
Yes, there are different tickets. One computer ticket and one hang-out ticket. The computer ticket allows you to bring your computer and you will get a place to set it up and enjoy every game while the hangout ticket is enough to take part in all the other activities without a computer! There will be plenty of activities such as karaoke, board games, tabletop role-playing games and places for hanging out and bringing your own switch etc. It’s a perfect opportunity to see what a LAN-party is and to try out things you have never tried or seen before.
The event will take place in Nymble between 17th of February - 19th of February and will last for about 40 hours.
