Ladies and gentlemen, everyone on the MAGFest staff would like to thank all of YOU, the attendees, for making MAGFest X the best one in the history of the event. We had 6100 people in attendance this year, which is double that of last year. We hope you enjoyed being there, because we sure as hell enjoyed putting it on for you. If you have any comments or suggestions, please feel free to fill out our Feedback Form. As much as we did right this year, we know there was a lot we could improve on, so let us know what you loved, what you hated, and what you would like to see.
MAGFest will be returning to the Gaylord in National Harbor January 3-6, 2013, and hotel reservations will be opening soon.
SEE YOU NEXT MISSION.
As a reminder to everyone, TICKETS WILL BE AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR. Since we have a larger venue this year, there is no chance of selling out. Full four-day passes will be $55, and single day passes will be $40.
Also, our schedule has been put online! Click here to view the schedule. This schedule is subject to change without notice, so make sure to check back frequently to double check times. For those of you wondering, Nobuo Uematsu/EARTHBOUND PAPAS will be performing Saturday night (Jan 7), with an autograph session immediately afterwards, and their Q&A panel will be sunday morning, with another autograph session following that.
First things first, let me get this out of the way: PRE-REGISTRATION ENDS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16TH AT 11:59PM EASTERN! Full weekend passes and single day passes will be available at the door, but you will save money if you pre-register instead! We need volunteers, too, and those sign-ups end at the same time. Discounted Hotel rooms will continue to be available up until the event, but book quick since rooms are going fast.
That all being said, I'm very excited to announce our Chiptune lineup, as well as, for the first time ever, our SECOND STAGE! We'll still have the main stage, and we'll still have the jamspace, but this year we've added a second stage for all those bands that we couldn't fit onto the main stage. Here's the lineup:
