Who We Are

NC's Biggest Gaming Organization

Raleigh Retro Gamers is North Carolina's largest gaming events organization, bringing together 25,000+ attendees a year across pop-up markets, shopping centers, museums, parks, and community hubs throughout the Triangle.

We started as a love letter to retro gaming and grew into something way bigger, a full-scale event company that produces free, family-friendly experiences packed with video games, cosplay, tournaments, vendors, and good energy.

From Triangle Town Center and Moore Square Park to NC museums and the Raleigh Convention Center, if something awesome is happening with games in NC, we're probably behind it.
