Event FAQ


  How do I participate in competitions?

Competitions are open to all attendees, please listen to announcements on the day for specific instructions.

If you have any questions or are looking for a team please don’t hesitate to ask us on discord or an Event Coordinator on the day, we want everyone to be able to participate!

  Why aren’t you running my favourite game as a tournament?

LAN-slide determines the schedule based on demand. Unfortunately LAN-slide can’t accommodate every popular game as a competition due to sponsorship and team capacity.

However you are free to play whatever games you would like, we encourage connecting with other players either at the event or on discord to play your game. We can help facilitate these games by assisting with connecting other players and/or setting up servers, please speak to an Event Coordinator.
