Experiences Overview

Families and individuals of all ages will have a tremendous range of places and opportunities to explore.
For Families
Who said video games are just for kids? Live out your childhood dreams behind the wheel of a racing car or in the cockpit of a fighter jet in one of our state of the art simulators. Or crank up your favorite classic rock hits on a customized Rock Band stage. Oh, and don’t worry, there’s stuff for the kids too!
For Gamers
Are you good? Really good? Good enough to face off on some of your favorite games in person? At Otronicon, you can test your skills on more than 100 gaming stations in a variety of competition formats. This year’s highlight – Rock Band: Battle of the Bands competition.
For Educators
Otronicon offers interactive classes uniquely designed for middle and high school students to explore the world of gaming technology. Students can work with industry-based tools for 3D modeling, animation and game design.

Experiences Overview
The crowd gets louder and louder as they cheer you on.
You grab your guitar, step on the stage and jam to the hits
they know and love. Just a dream? Not anymore.
At Otronicon, you can live out your rock n’ roll fantasy on a customized Rock Band stage. Hot lights, concert speakers and, of course, screaming fans are all part of your Rock Band experience. Maybe music isn’t for you. How about flying an Apache helicopter in the actual simulator the Army uses, or crossing the finish line in a racing simulator built just for this event.
