AUSTRALIA'S BIGGEST GAMING FESTIVAL

PAX Aus set for a huge return to Melbourne in 2024.

Tell me about PAX Aus

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?

PANELS
