First-Time Visitors

BEGINNERS Guide to Your First Gaming Event

Choose the right event

Not all exhibitions are the same. Check if the event focuses on highly competitive esports, casual console hardware, or mobile technology to match your interests.

Check the event description

Read the independent listings carefully to understand if the event is a hands-on hardware expo or a spectator-only showcase.

Confirm registration requirements

Ensure you have requested information on whether tickets must be purchased in advance or if registration is available at the venue.

Review age restrictions

Many hardware and game demonstration areas have specific age requirements. Always verify this before planning a family stay.

Prepare your phone and essentials

Bring a power bank for your smartphone, physical copies of your accommodation confirmations, and comfortable walking shoes for large exhibition halls.

Follow equipment-demo instructions

When approaching PC or console setups, wait for the exhibitor's instructions before touching peripherals or attempting to play demonstration software.

Plan breaks and quieter periods

Exhibitions can be overwhelming. Schedule time away from the screens to visit the merchandise stores or grab food outside the main hall.

Confirm transport and return journey

Always know the public transport schedule between your chosen city stay and the exhibition venue, especially for late-evening events.

Your First Australian Gaming Weekend
