Seats Are Changing
FYI your seat number will change before the event. We’re moving seats closer together to save space.
However, you will still be seated in the same order and with the same groups.
Just ask for your updated seat number at registration when you arrive.
If you accidentally chose a seat away from your group or team, we can still make changes for you. Reach out to us on Discord.

YOU STILL NEED TO BRING AN ETHERNET CABLE AND POWER STRIP.
These items are not included with your rental.

If you ordered tickets for other people for RGB LAN 6, leave a little extra time at registration for you and your group members to give us the correct names and email addresses for each ticket.
Each attendee must have an email address registered with us for their ticket.
Otherwise, they won’t be able to connect to the network onsite.

You can track up to two personal items only with our sticker system.
As always, please be responsible for your own gear and respectful of everyone else’s gear.
