The_Laird Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Its already been posted elsewhere but I thought I would also post in here for those who may not have seen it. I am this years organiser of Jagfest UK which started off as an Atari Jaguar event many years ago in Kent but has now morphed into a multi-format retro gaming event with a leaning towards Atari. This years event is taking place from the 18th to 20th of September in Luton. Previous years have seen a massive ST/Falcon pressence and this year looks to be exactly the same with plenty of programming as well as gaming going on! And of course Nick Harlow from 16/32 Systems will be in attendence so there will also be plenty of great Atari goodies to be picked up and maybe even tested before purchase! Hope to see some of you there, for more information and ticket prices etc have a look HERE Any questions just ask! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing that is great about Jagfest is that there is a real community between the people that go, and even though we've only met a few times i'm still in contact with friends from the event to this day! Its a great experience if your into retro gaming or gaming in general, as it's a great chance to play all the obscure stuff you may have missed out on or past stories. Failing all that there's normally a drink up on the Friday or Saturday so if you find things that boring you can tag along with us and make the night a bit more enjoyable Hope that gets you interested. thund3r.
