From independent creators to established publishers, the HLG Con exhibitor hall is where the tabletop community connects, discovers, and celebrates the craft of gaming.

The exhibitor hall at High Level Games Convention is designed as a gathering place where the many facets of tabletop gaming converge under one roof. Walking the floor, attendees encounter a rich tapestry of independent creators, small-press publishers, and seasoned hobbyists who share a passion for rolling dice and telling stories. The atmosphere is one of discovery, where every booth offers a chance to find something unexpected—a hand-painted mini, a zine filled with strange new rules, or a conversation with an artist who has been sketching fantastical worlds for years. It is a space built for browsing, lingering, and connecting with the people who make the games we love.

Beyond the marketplace, the convention program includes a carefully curated selection of panels and workshops that explore the craft and culture of gaming. These sessions are led by experienced game masters, writers, and designers who offer practical advice on everything from world-building to running a first campaign. Attendees can learn about the art of LARP design, the nuances of character creation, or the history of role-playing games as a storytelling medium. The tone is collaborative and welcoming, encouraging both newcomers and veterans to share their knowledge. Each talk and workshop is an opportunity to deepen one’s understanding of the hobby and to find new ways to enjoy it with others.

Live-action role-playing holds a special place at HLG Con, with a lineup of immersive experiences that transport players into richly detailed narratives. From high-stakes political intrigue to eerie folkloric mysteries, the LARPs on offer are designed to appeal to a wide range of tastes and play styles. Participants are invited to step into character, engage with a living story, and collaborate with fellow players to shape the outcome of the tale. These games are supported by experienced facilitators who ensure that the experience remains safe, inclusive, and memorable for everyone involved. For many attendees, the LARP track is the heart of the weekend—a chance to live the adventure rather than merely watch it unfold.

The convention community is built on a foundation of respect and shared enthusiasm, with clear policies in place to ensure that every attendee feels welcome and safe. Harassment is not tolerated, and all participants are expected to uphold a standard of conduct that prioritizes the comfort and dignity of others. This commitment to inclusivity extends to every aspect of the event, from the gaming tables to the panel rooms to the social gatherings in the hotel common areas. The goal is to create a space where people from all backgrounds can come together to celebrate their love of tabletop games without fear or discomfort. It is this sense of belonging that makes HLG Con more than just a weekend event—it is a community that endures long after the dice are put away.
