Friday 3PM-8PM | Saturday 10AM-6PM | Sunday 11AM-5PM

Welcome to fun & games at the Huntsville Comic & Pop Culture Expo! We love games so much that we have extended hours for the game room! If you want to stay current with tabletop gaming updates, consider joining our Facebook Group or the convention's Discord server. 

​​​​

Gaming Hours

Tabletop gaming is available 3:00PM – 12:00AM on Friday, 10:00AM – 12:00AM on Saturday, and 11:00AM – 5:00PM on Sunday. Game times and duration are clearly noted in our Guide to Gaming and CSV-formatted schedule.

​​​

Games Available

Board, card, role-playing, and miniature strategy games are available to play for all ages and experience levels. We offer a game library from which attendees may check-out games to play as time allows and a play-to-win game selection (provided by our wonderful sponsors) from which lucky players get to take a fun game home. Additionally, there will be 250+ games hosted at specific times. Player registration sheets for the daily games are posted each morning in East Hall 1.

Dungeons & Dragons Epic Event

Our Dungeons & Dragons Tournament has been replaced with a new format! Instead of a tournament, we now host an epic event where multiple tables participate in a shared adventure. Join with old friends and new allies to defeat evil on Saturday, April 18, 2026 at 6:00PM!

​​​

This is an after-hours event but convention passes must be purchased during normal hours (Sat 10:00AM - 6:00PM). Characters are provided. Access to a 2024 D&D Player's Handbook is recommended. Seats are not reserved so arrive early to secure your seat.

​

Vampire: The Masquerade LARP (16+) & Costume Contest

On Friday, April 17, at 8:30PM, personally take on the role of a modern-day vampire in this Live Action Role-Play (LARP) event for ages 16+ based on the Vampire: The Masquerade game setting. Feel free to come in vampire cosplay or costume (rated PG-13). No LARP experience necessary. It is up to you to elect the new vampire Prince of Huntsville. The player with the best vampire costume is awarded a $50 gift certificate to Noble Knight Games (enough to buy the game book)! This is an after-hours event but convention passes must be purchased during normal hours (Fri 3:00PM - 8:00PM).

​

Play-to-Win Games

As mentioned above, we offer a play-to-win selection of games. The general idea is that you and your friends (including new friends you just met at the convention) check-out an interesting game from the play-to-win desk, play it, and then return it. Once returned, you have the option of entering into a drawing for the game or entering into our general drawing for prize support. We could not offer play-to-win games without our generous sponsors so please let them know you appreciate their support.

Game Library

Our game library is provided by a local gamer, Craig Goodrick. Craig has an extensive game library requiring 12 ft. of shelf-space so if you are looking for a game to play, we should have it! The process to play a library game is simple: you check-out a game from the game library desk and then return it once finished. Craig will be available to teach games as well, but his time may be limited by demand.

​​​​

Charity Auction

Each year, the Huntsville Comic & Pop Culture Expo hosts a charity auction to benefit Kids to Love, a local charity to assist foster children. Tabletop game products for the auction (donated by our terrific sponsors) can be found on a silent auction table in East Hall 1 on Saturday.
