In 2004, the folks at Penny Arcade decided theywanted a show exclusively for gaming. Sure, comics, anime, and other nerd hobbies were cool, and those activities all had their own shows… so what about games? From that idea spawned a small 4,500 person event in Bellevue, Washington, focused on the culture and community that is gaming.
Since then, the show hasn’t looked back. Doubling in size each year until venue capacities were reached, in 2010 the show expanded into Boston for PAX East, drawing tens of thousands of attendees in the inaugural year. The shows in Seattle and Boston represent the two largest gaming events in North America!

The Global Game Jam (GGJ) is theworld’s largest game jam event. Think of it as a hackathon focused on game development. It is the growth of an idea that in today’s heavily connected world, we could come together, be creative, share experiences and express ourselves in a multitude of ways using video games – it is very universal.
The weekend stirs a global creative buzz in games… while atthe same time exploring the process of development, be it programming, iterative design, narrative exploration or artistic expression. It is allcondensed into a 48 hour development cycle. Although the event is heavilyfocused on programming, there are many other areas where people who don’t code can contribute to a game.
