About our LAN Parties
We believe that an exceptional LAN is much more than just a room full of gamers and their computers; our LANs are a celebration of shared game experiences. You suggest the games we play together, you decide the soundtrack, and we immerse the venue in lighting, and together we cultivate a friendly social atmosphere for game-lovers of all backgrounds and skill levels.
