Decided to travel to my first cax this year and wanted to schedule any panels I want to see but can't find any info. Is it published somewhere?
 
I get the impression they are still working it out.

It'll be great to have you!

Just posting the latest update (including some items regarding the scheduled speaker/s seminars).

See y'all there!

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Here are some updates and reminders for our upcoming show this July 29-30, 2017 at the Hyatt Regency in Santa Clara, California:

Tickets

The pre-registration deadline is July 14th, 2017 and will not be extended (pre-register and get in one full hour early, get t-shirt discounts, and a cool laminated badge with a special lanyard!). Visit the tickets page to register by mail, online with PayPal, or with TicketWeb. If you are mailing in your registration, we appreciate doing so as soon as possible so you can get your badge.

Hotels

We have room blocks in three hotels (the Hyatt Regency, the Hilton, and the Marriott). The blocks are filling up and we've requested more space – rooms will be added as they are available. If you use one of these hotels (or any of the other ones in the area), please be sure to mention that the rooms are for California Extreme.

T-shirts

The t-shirt designs are posted on the CAX forum (click here). Vote for your favorites so we can decide which ones to print (vote on the forum or send us an e-mail to [email protected]).

Space

We have expanded!! We now have almost 30,000 square feet of room (up from 22,000 last year). The extra space is right behind the registration area – there will be a great game lineup in there as well as great vendors! And, it may not be quite so crowded!

Speakers

We are working on a great lineup for this year's show. We have the following ready to come and present (subject to change and more may added!):

· Steve Ritchie introducing the new Star Wars pinball

· Josh Tsui, John Tobias and a group from the 1990's at Midway

· Nathan Altice from UCSC

· BumbleBear (Killer Queen)

· Cosmotrons (new multiplayer arcade game)

· Joe Cain - expert on Air Hockey

· Thaddeus Cooper and Kevin Kreitman, authors of "Seeking Redemption: The Real Story of the Beautiful Game of Skee-Ball"

· Christopher Cruz famous for the insane Skycurser

More details and times later.

You can keep track of further updates as they happen at www.caextreme.org. See you at the show!

I'm looking forward to it. 20 years of collecting, 12 years of making stencils and this is my first Ca Extreme. Coming from FL it's a long trip, i plan to fart in 4 time zones in 4 hours.

After that i'm going to toilet paper exidy's room, give jeff kinder a wedgie and all will be right with the world.

Let me be the first to offer to buy you a drink :D

It's a good time - just be forewarned there are certain hours that it will be insanely busy in the main hall. Lots of options/games/guest speakers to see!

I'm going to attempt to run my own little mini-tourney (oddball games from my personal collection) in similar fashion to the weekly Arcade Hangouts. Only a week away, I'm still working on getting the last touches ready. I'll post more info hopefully after this weekend when 'mostly' dialed in....trying to make magic!

P.S. We need to do a KLOV group photo! My vote would be Saturday in the center atrium 4PM SHARP (pending no conflicts with guest speakers, etc.)
