MidCon
XXXII
19th – 21st November, 2010
Thistle Birmingham City Hotel, UK
MidCon XXXII takes place in a
comfortable hotel in the centre of Birmingham from Friday afternoon (11am) to
Sunday evening (6pm).
The convention features:
-
the opportunity to
play board games with like-minded adults, including all the hot games
from this year's Essen games fair
-
the MidCon music and general knowledge quiz for
teams of four on Saturday evening
-
the chance to buy
even more board games
-
the chance to sell your surplus games on the Bring & Buy stall on
the Saturday afternoon
MidCon is primarily about playing games and meeting people.
You can play any of the number of games people bring along
with them, including the hot new games from the Spiel
games fair in Essen, which takes place a few weeks before MidCon.
Popular games include 18XX, Puerto Rico, Agricola and Power Grid, but
you are welcome to bring along your own favourite games –
you will almost certainly find some people willing to play at
least one of them. Costs
