DETAILS:

Entering
its 23rd year, QuakeCon 2018 will celebrate games and the people who play them
by hosting North America’s largest BYOC (Bring-Your-Own-Computer) LAN party.
This year’s BYOC will be doubling in size from QuakeCon 2017, so even more
participants can showcase their custom computers and join the QuakeCon community
to play their favorite games either solo or against one another on the same
local area network.

QuakeCon
is free for general attendees and open to the public. This year’s event will
offer diverse activities for all, including those who choose not to bring their
own computer. Attendees are some of the first to see sneak peeks of Bethesda’s
upcoming titles and announcements, while also attending a wide array of panels,
presentations, tournaments, workshops and exhibits from leading tech companies
showcasing the newest gaming accessories and hardware.

QuakeCon
welcomes exhibitors and sponsors to showcase their games, hardware and services.
