It hasn’t gotten a lot of attention in the anglophone community (I guess that’s my fault?), but geeks from around town are converging this weekend for LAN parties, code fests, role-playing games and all sorts of other stuff at the Montreal Geek Festival.
Tickets are $12 for the weekend or $8 a day. The fun is at 752 Sherbrooke W.
And if you’re into board games and other non-computerized geekiness, there’s also the monthly Geek Outs at Burritoville on Bishop St. The next one is March 20 at 2pm. Attendance is free.
How can we get bored with such gorgeous weather???
I’ve been to the Geek Festival and it’s a fine tribute to the history and culture of Geece.
I saw you there (allright, I’ll admit, I was too shy to come say hi), I’m still waiting for your cosplay pictures! (Note: Steve was not cosplaying, he took pictures of people cosplaying!)
Hi,
I took some pictures of the event. Check it out at http://www.geekbecois.com/geekfest-montreal-les-photos/
