The Boston Herald reveals details for PAX East 2011 and beyond.
Back in March the Penny Arcade Expo made its first appearance in Boston, Massachusetts. Gathering some 52,000 attendees during the three day event, the alternate location proved to be very successful. Not one to disappoint, an agreement has been signed to bring PAX East back to Boston until at least 2013.
The news also comes with word of a change in venue. While PAX East 2010 took place at the Hynes Convention Center, PAX East 2011 will take place at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center. A considerably larger crowd is expected next year, and so the move is to preemptively accommodate the growth.
The Seattle, Washington location, now called PAX Prime, will be held from September 3rd to September 5th.
