Fortress Melbourne is throwing the party of Melbourne Games Week - Lenovo's Big Reboot, and it's going full Y2K.
Melbourne's home of games culture rewinds to the early 2000s for a night of gaming, musical acts, live entertainment, cosplay and pure nostalgia. Expect throwback tunes, retro visuals, immersive experiences and the whole Fortress community under one roof.
Hit the dance floor, jump into a game, catch up with your crew over a drink or just soak up the nostalgia. Keep an eye out for a few surprises from Lenovo Legion through the night.
Cosplay is encouraged but check the Fortress cosplay guidelines online before you suit up.
This is an 18+ event, and valid ID is required on entry. Tickets are non-refundable.
