WCL4.0 is a Bring Your Own Computer gaming event. We are here to host gamers to meet, play and have fun. This is a family style event, all ages are welcome. We are partnering with Dragon Fall, a tabletop gaming community. They will be sharing the event space with us. We will also have vendors with booths displaying and selling items.

If you attend, you do not have to participate in a tournament. We are a LAN party first, and a game tournament second. We are here for people to meet up and play games against each other in the same room. That is the fun a LAN Party! We have a lot of other activities going on besides the tournaments. Please come, show up, have fun! Meet new people! See a list of Other Activities near the bottom of this description!

These tickets are for the BYOC event only. For regular expo tickets or for Dragon Fall tickets, please visit the Dragon Fall website for more information.  If you want a visual on how the room will be setup please visit our old ticketing site: https://www.lanreg.org/windycitylan/wcl4 

Seating will be first come first serve, as we do not have the option on this site to do a seating chart yet. If you are coming with a team we will sit you together!
