Magpie Games at Gen Con: Check out the Nest!
Magpie Games and Gen Con Partner on a New Approach to Event Space for 2024 with The Magpie Nest
Magpie Games is expanding its presence at the biggest tabletop roleplaying convention of the year, Gen Con, with the announcement of The Magpie Games Nest – Magpie Games event and sales space taking over the entire third floor of The Hyatt Regency, Indianapolis.
“Magpie Games has seen incredible growth at Gen Con over the past several years with a number of events for break-out hit games that are always in high demand every year, so we are incredibly excited to be working with them on a new approach to an event presence at the convention,” says Derek Guder, Director of Events for Gen Con.
The entire third floor of The Hyatt—more than 16,000 square feet—will be transformed into The Magpie Nest, a location just outside the hustle and bustle of the Convention Center where Magpie’s growing community and fan base can play games like Avatar Legends: The Roleplaying Games, Root: The Roleplaying Game, and Urban Shadows. The Nest will serve as not only the sales space for all Magpie Games’ product lines but will be the venue for press announcements with multiple major property announcements slated for Thursday, August 1st at 4:00 pm in the Magpie Nest Lounge at the “Magpie Games – What’s Next?” event.
“We look forward to engaging with fans of our games every year in Indianapolis. There’s no other show that comes even close to providing the kind of gaming experience as Gen Con,” says Mark Diaz Truman, CEO of Magpie Games. “The Nest allows us to have a space that will immerse players in both the games they love and the games they’re playing for the first time and we hope it becomes a welcoming destination for many years to come!”
The Nest is a radical new approach: packed with games, panels, free play areas, and demos, the Nest is a unique opportunity for fans to experience everything the Magpie Games community has to offer, all in one location. Both Gen Con and Magpie Games are eager to see the fan response in just a few short days when Gen Con kicks off Thursday, August 1st.
