After some teasing online, the dates and location for next year’s SoCal Gaming Expo was revealed yesterday.

The convention will take place at the Pasadena Convention Center in Pasadena, California on June 8 and June 9. Tickets for the event are on sale to the general public right now here. Vendor and arcade applications can be found here. This year’s event took place back in May at the Ontario Convention Center in Ontario, California.

The folks behind the convention said this about their beloved gathering of gamers:

“SoCal Gaming Expo is known for its massive vendor marketplace, esports competitions, free play arcade and gaming area, tabletop gaming, cosplay and YouTube, voice actor and industry guests. Our marketplace is filled with vendors selling video games, pop culture, artwork and more!

SoCal Gaming Expo is a convention for everyone who loves gaming to attend. We open our doors to people of all ages, races, and nationalities to come together and share their passion for gaming. We want your experience at the show to be an amazing one!”

Over the summer, SoCal Gaming Expo went under new management with Kris (who also runs Retro Games Plus, Retro World Expo, and Pixel Podcast) Lance (from RetroWare, The Video Game Years, and Retro World Expo) and Riff and Ricky (from Pixel Game Squad and Pixel Podcast) taking over.
