🪶 NEW AT PAX AUS: THE MAGPIE ROOM 🪶 Head upstairs to Level 2 of MCEC and find the Magpie Room. A more relaxed space to sit, eat, grab a drink, recharge and hang out.

There’s a whole stack of stuff happening up here that you won’t find elsewhere at PAX. 🎲 D&D, Chaosium, Pathfinder & Starfinder RPGs 🎮 Retro gaming competitions & speedruns 🕹️ Vintage & modern pinball 🏆 Pinball high-score competitions 🐉 Kid & teen-friendly D&D 🎯 Barrel Ball 💥 Carmageddon, Shadow Warrior, Doom, Wipeout & more 🏎️ Super Mario Kart, Wii Sports, Speedball 2 & more 🎭 The Cornucopia of RPGs 🎲 PAX Aus at the Table …and plenty more. So if you need a breather, head upstairs. If you want to play something you haven't played before, head upstairs. If you want to spend an unreasonable amount of time playing pinball, definitely head upstairs. 🪶 Magpie Room. Level 2. Come have a look.
