Vancouver Retro Gaming Expo @ The Columbia
Mar 17 @ 6:00 pm – Mar 18 @ 12:00 am

IRL Events is proud to help sponsor the Vancouver Retro Gaming Expo.

This 15-hour gaming expo has taken the basics of vendors, retro video games, tournaments, panels, charity auctions, costumes, etc. and spiced it up a bit with a licensed venue, a DJ spinning some old-school tracks and remixes, and nerd burlesque into the evening.

Instead of 2-3 shorter days with the same content spread out, as much content as possibly could has been crammed into one big day.

For more information, check out the IRL Events forum, or http://www.vancouvergamingexpo.com/.
