HOW TO GET INTO PAX UNPLUGGED
Looking for the easiest way to get into the building? This is the place to find the latest information on morning entry plans. We recommend following the guidance in this page to the best of your ability as it will make getting into your favorite games as easy as possible!
Main Entrance - 129 N Broad Street
This year, the Main Entrance to PAX Unplugged is located on Broad Street.
Some of you may remember entrances we’ve used in the past and prefer one you’re used to, but we guarantee that this will be your new preferred method of entering the building this year.
This is also where registration and badge pickup is located if you need to get your badge.
This entrance will be open alongside Badge Pickup, so if you need to get your badge, you can do that and get on the queue to go inside thereafter.
Some parts of the show open at 9:00 AM:
- Merch Booth Lite (Level 2 Concourse)
- Megagames (Room 118B)
- First Look (Terrace Ballroom)
- Gaming Hall (Halls C-D-E)
The Expo Hall will be open at 10:00 AM
Each area (badge pickup, gaming halls, expo hall and the rest of the show) will have different queues. Follow Enforcer directions when you arrive to make sure you’re getting in the right line!
Badge Pickup and Registration - Broad Street Atrium
Registration is located in the Broad Street Atrium in the Main Entrance of PAX Unplugged. This is where you can buy or pickup already purchased badges.
Registration will be open 2 days before PAX Unplugged starts to give you the chance to pickup your badges early!
Badge Pickup hours:
- Wednesday, 12/4: 12:00 PM – 7:00 PM
- Thursday, 12/5: 8:00 AM – 8:00 PM
- Friday, 12/6: 8:00 AM – 7:00 PM
- Saturday, 12/7: 8:00 AM – 7:00 PM
- Sunday, 12/8: 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM
It is highly recommended that you pickup your badges during our early bird days on Wednesday and Thursday before the show!
Secondary Entrance (Badge Holders Only) - 1111 Market Street
The Grand Hall, which you may remember from previous years, has become our secondary entrance and is reserved for Badge Holders Only. There will not be any badge pickup desks at this entrance. If you need to pickup or buy your badges onsite, you’ll need to visit the Main Entrance on Broad.
Please note! The escalators at this entrance are undergoing maintenance and will not be fully functional during PAX Unplugged. This is why it is highly recommended to enter the building from our Main Entrance on Broad Street.
While we’re aware this will be an inconvenience, we are doing everything we can to improve the entry process, part of which is why we’re letting you know as soon as possible!
