LEXINGTON, Ky. — Do you love playing board games? Do you want to learn and play board games while meeting new people who also love board games? Then we invite you to join 700+ attendees for the tenth annual LexiCon Board Game and RPG Convention! Yes, LexiCon is celebrating its 10-year anniversary Friday through Sunday, April 5 to 7.
LexiCon Tabletop Game Convention is a fun, friendly gaming convention held in beautiful Lexington at the Clarion Hotel and Conference Center. Hotel room will be a two-minute walk to board games, roleplaying games, free access to LexiCon’s large library of 900+ games, tournaments, cosplay, excellent vendors, game demos, adult evening gaming parties, and more. With plenty for individuals and groups, a weekend badge provides access to most activities, although some (limited) events may cost extra. Parking is free.
The convention is best known for great social gaming parties sponsored by West Sixth Brewing and for being an open and friendly local convention. It has board games, card games and role-playing games (including a huge space devoted specifically to those RPG events). There will be many opportunities to learn and play games of different types throughout the entire weekend.
There are Family Events on Sunday, fun tournaments all weekend where participants can learn the game before and play for a prize, and a VIP access area. There are gaming opportunities for single attendees, new and experienced gamers, and groups/families. All are welcome.
