LAN All Night 12 Recap: Five Years Strong and Gaming On

LAN All Night returned for its twelfth event, marking a major milestone: five years of gaming, community, and charitable impact. Hosted at Great Wolf Lodge in Grapevine, Texas, this western-themed weekend brought together players, creators, and fans for three packed days of competition, creativity, and connection.

Gaming for a Cause

LAN All Night is powered by purpose. This spring, the community raised more than $1,000 for 1Up On Cancer, a nonprofit that supports adult cancer patients in need. Every ticket helped make a difference, and we’re proud to continue blending gaming with giving back.
