When you read this article you’ll already be aware that the European Games Week has been cancelled and sadly this has put out so many people. Even though the people behind it are giving full refunds there is still the glaring issue of attendees who are flying over to the now-cancelled event as well as those who are staying in hotels. There are no refunds being offered for the hotels or the flights. So what do attendees do? That is where The Guild of Nerds, The Republic of Players, and Mini Arcade Systems came in with the Dublin Gaming Mini Con.

The details behind Dublin Gaming Mini Con

On Sunday, September 22nd at the Wynns Hotel Dublin this collection of groups will be running a free entry mini gaming con as a back up for the European Games Festival.

They have no official affiliation with the con but have come together to put on a small event for those who have bought train tickets, flights, hotels and more.

If you know anyone who had plans for The European Games Week the Dublin Gaming Mini Con is a must for them. This will allow them to enjoy themselves this weekend as there are several events set up and they cater to everyone. I personally am impressed with what this collection of geeks is doing. They didn’t have to do but hopefully, this will help soothe the sting of the cancellation of The European Games Week.

Stay tuned to GamEir. Also, be sure and converse with us on Twitter (@gam_eir), Facebook (@GamEir), and Instagram (@GamEir). Check out our videos on Twitch (GamEir) and YouTube (GamEir) and we’ll give you all the latest content.
