Friday Evening
The main event does not start until Saturday, but we have a meal on the Friday night to welcome you to Lavecon and give you an opportunity to meet people in a relaxed social atmosphere. Ambassador Reception tickets need to be booked separately from your event ticket.
All Weekend (Saturday & Sunday)
We have a lovely lounge where you can relax and play a board game or two, while enjoying complimentary tea or coffee (or if you prefer a drink or two from the bar). A number of our wonderful guests from Frontier will be staying all weekend, so it's a good opportunity to catch one or two of them.
There is a lovely room we are calling the Games Room… despite the fact there are lots of games in the other rooms… here you are likely to find the wonderful team from Spidermind games, with some RPG sessions and Battlecards. You are also likely to meet some people from Asmodee games with a agame or two for you to try.
Near to the entrance you will find the Artemis rooms, where we will have Starship Bridge Simulators, can your team be the best?
We are having a VR demo room where you can try out some different VR approaches.
Also the LAN, where you will find Games and tournaments to take part in even if you don’t have your own PC with you. There are tournaments running through the weekend as well as some Retro Gaming.
There is our wonderful Charity Raffle to raise money for two amazing charities; Special Effect and EDS UK. 100% of the takings of the raffle goes to charity.
And as a side note, if it is all too much and you need a quiet moment (although we do have a designated quiet room) there is the lovely swimming pool, spa and sauna.
