what’s MAGWEST??

Maybe you’ve heard of MAGFest but don’t know what this is, or maybe you’ve never experienced pure bliss, but MAGWest is a nonstop weekend event with console gaming, arcades, tabletop, LAN, live video game cover bands, chiptunes, guests, and more, now with 100% more west coast style! It’s our eighth year, and we’re excited to continue grow with the gaming community on the west coast.

Remember digital magwest?

We spent a couple weekends together, and it was the best times of our lives. We laughed, we cried, we invented a religion—who could ask for more? If you need a bit of a refresher, take a look at our YouTube playlists for West 2020 and West 2021!
