TooManyGames is the premier event for anyone interested in video games, board games, CCGs, and tabletop gaming. TooManyGames is known for its video game music concerts, arcades, tournaments, chiptunes, industry panels, panels by famous YouTubers and gamers, and an Indie Game Showcase where developers show off their new games.

The 2017 marketplace will also feature more than 60 vendors selling retro games, new games, board games, crafts, gaming-related art, and more.

TooManyGames also will host Make-A-Wish guest Dennis M., a 16-year-old boy from Twentynine Palms, Calif. Dennis has a life-threatening medical condition called Ewing’s Sarcoma. His heartfelt wish is “to go to the TooManyGames convention in Philadelphia.”
