THANKS FOR PLAYING!

THANKS FOR PLAYING!

Thank you for joining us at PAX Aus 2024. To our new friends, let's PAX again sometime real soon!


PAX Aus is a celebration of gaming and gaming culture featuring thought-provoking panels, a massive expo hall filled with the best publishers and independent studios, game demos, musical performances, tournaments, and a community experience unlike any other.

Held across three full days and all under one roof, PAX offers the community the opportunity to meet with old friends, make new ones, interact with game developers, publishers and brands, and get hands-on with everything they love about gaming.



SO WHAT CAN I DO AT PAX AUS?

PAX RISING

PAX Rising houses the best of the independent development scene, highlighting our largest selection of exciting indie tabletop and video games for your enjoyment. 

EXPO HALL

This hall is packed with exhibitors ranging from AAA publishers and developers behind the latest blockbuster games, to the innovative indie teams disrupting the industry.

TABLETOP

Meet up with friends and play a whole host of board games and RPGs! Check out the full schedule and put on your robe and wizard hat, or check out our lending library of board and card games.

PANELS

We strive to elevate all aspects of the culture around gaming, and perhaps nowhere is that more evident than our panels, with the full schedule available about a month prior to each event.

OMEGATHON

We’ve selected champions from the audience to compete against each other for your amusement, but beware, the road to the Final Round of the Omegathon is paved with tears and broken dreams. Nah, honestly it’s really great for everyone. See for yourself!
