Vendor Registration for 2010 Expo

We have started vendor registration for the 2010 show and have a variety of table and booth sizes available.

If you would like to secure a booth or table at Portland Retro Gaming Expo, visit the Vendor page.

We will do our best to accomodate vendors requests regarding location and utilities. Vendors who register and pay early will have preference on booth/table location.

5th Annual PRGE is Announced!

I think it's safe to say that Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2009 exceeded everyone's expectations! We broke new records for attendance, quantity of freeplay systems and number of vendors. Our new downtown location and various public transportation options were well received.

We're ready to do it again in 2010.

Once again we have secured the Portland Crowne Plaza Hotel for our event, with the following changes:

• We have secured a second room. The 2009 show used the 5,600 square foot Belmont ballroom. This year we will have that room plus the 2,700 square foot Windsor room for a total of almost 8,500 square feet of classic video game goodness. In addition to these ballrooms, we will have access to two large foyer areas outside of each ballroom as well as the same outdoor plaza we used last year.


• We have opted for a two-day event. The 2010 Expo will operate Saturday and Sunday, September 18-19, 2010.


• Service and hospitality improvements. The PRGE staff were extremely happy with the level of service provided to our guests by the Crowne Plaza in 2009, but we did agree on a few ways they can help us advance the Expo in 2010. They have committed to fully stocking the snack bar for the duration of the show and to provide meals/sandwiches for purchase connveniently near the exhibition area. Additionally, they will ensure the onsite ATM machine remains stocked with cash throughout the weekend.

It's safe to say that the 5th Portland Retro Gaming Expo is already shaping up to the biggest and best ever. Even at this early date we have begun to line up consoles and arcade machines for our extensive freeplay room. The number of freeplay consoles alone will likely be double last year's amount.

Please check back here often. We expect to have the admissions and vendor rates worked out and on the site by sometime in January.
