This year, PAX Aus has partnered with EB Expo to bring a dedicated space for the world’s largest publishers as well as additional panels to the show.

“This year’s PAX Aus will be one that you never forget,” said Luke Lancaster, content manager, PAX Aus. “Think of that less like something vaguely menacing and more like our continued disbelief in diminishing returns. The whole team is committed to bringing you more panels, games, exhibitors, and things to do than ever before.”
