We may restrict or limit bandwidth due to this constraint.  Please expect online games to have impactful latency, so LAN games are highly encouraged.  Please ensure all games and software are up to date before packing for the event. We will have a game cache server on site to attempt to cache all popular titles, but please ensure that your game libraries are up to date the day before the event if possible.

Are Pets permitted?: Pets are permitted on the property, however we do ask that pets will not be permitted in the gaming tents. This event does take place in the wilderness, so there are chances of wildlife encounters. We ask that pets in attendance are well behaved with other people and animals.  Please do not bring any people or pet aggressive animals to this event.  Staff members reserve the right to ask you to leash your pet, and will ask your pet to leave the event if they feel there is a risk to attendees or other pets.

Family Meals: There will be some scheduled “Family Meals” during the event. Please stay tuned for more Info.

Lake Access: There may be direct lake access from the event property, however Lake Cle Elum is a reservoir lake, and the levels change throughout the summer. If lake levels are low, there are designated lake access locations south of the event property.

About Us

LANFest is a 501c3 non-profit organization built on the mission of “Building healthy communities through gaming”. LANFest was founded by a small group of workers at Intel back in 2002 who wanted to put together a LAN and bring people together. It wasn’t until 2011 that LANFest was a fully functioning organization and began its mission of building healthy communities through gaming by becoming a charity organization. Through the years LANFest has grown from just a small group of gamers in Washington at the Intel Office to a massive organization with 23 Chapters across 18 States and is still growing today!
