An event in Raleigh is making a space for geeks and gamers to connect.
HiddenBlock Games is presenting the Game and Geek Expo ‘2026, which will be held at the Raleigh Convention Center. The event will be the perfect place for fans of pop culture to get together.
Among the activities planned are gaming experiences from tournaments to areas for freeplay, tabletop games, virtual reality, arcades, and both modern and retro consoles. Industry experts in the world of geeks and gaming will take part in panel discussions, giving fans a look at their favorite fandoms from the inside, and cosplaying will be an important part of the weekend.
Attendees will have an opportunity to participate in photoshoots, contests, and runways, and some music-themed events will be taking place on stage. An after-dark party is also planned.
Attendees at events like this always look forward to meeting and talking to celebrity guests, and Game and Geek Expo will feature appearances by voice artists, actors, and other stars. Among the performers are voice actor Kenny James, who is the voice of Bowser, and Steve Cardenas, who played Rocky DeSantos in the Power Rangers franchise.
The convention is scheduled for September 5 and 6, and the venue is at 500 South Salisbury Street. When they organize events like this, hosts can enhance the experience by using flyer printing to create a handout for visitors including a schedule of events.
