PAX Unplugged Announces Return To Physical Event In December

Penny Arcade and ReedPop revealed they will be bringing PAX Unplugged back this year in physical form this December. After the success of running PAX West 2021 under COVID-19 protocols in Seattle (which according to organizers had universal mask compliance and 93% of attendees showing proof of vaccination), the team is bringing back the tabletop-centric event to the Philadelphia Convention Center from December 10th-12th. Badges haven't gone on sale yet, but we do know that three-day badges will be sold for $75, while the individual Friday, Saturday, and Sunday badges will be sold at $35 each. This time around, they will be requiring all attendees to show proof of a complete COVID-19 vaccination series and abide by stringent masking requirements. So no exceptions this time around for any reason. We have more info about the event below as we have the official health and safety guidelines for you to check out.
