Geekway to the West 2019

Geekway to the West is a premier Tabletop Board Game convention held annually near St. Louis, Missouri. Our 15th annual convention is May 16-19, 2019.

Geekway badge sales have now ended for 2019. We close sales about six weeks prior to the convention each year to allow us to get badges printed with names, finalize merchandise orders, and make plans for space. There are no at the door badges sales at all for Geekway.

If you have purchased a badge, you will pick it up from us at Geekway HQ when you arrive. Simply bring a photo ID and we will give you your badge. We will not mail badges out. There is no physical ticket to bring - your ID is good enough. (If you don't have a photo ID, bring your confirmation email and we will work with you to find your badge.)

If you missed out on sales for 2019, we suggest you find us on Facebook, and post a question to the group asking if anyone would like to transfer their badge to you. They must send you an email that validates that they are giving you their badge. You will come to Geekway HQ and tell us the name of the person you bought the badge from. You must show us the email from them. We will then direct you to a little side station where we will destroy the old badge, and give you a new one with your name on it. We will charge $5 for this process to cover the cost of the plastic badge (they are not cheap, and we are rounding up because this is a pain). You will not be able to use their badge and just go around with it pretending to be them - your badge needs to have your name on it.

If you bought a badge for someone else, and you want to give it to them in the system so they can sign up for events, follow these steps:

1. Your friend needs to sign up for a Tabletop Events (TTE) account. This won't work till they do that.
2. Once they have an account, click your name at the top of the TTE screen. Then click "Friends" on the right side. Then type their name or email. Click them. They will get an email which they must confirm.
3. Once you are friends, you will see them in your friends list. You can click "Give" next to their name, and then choose the badge you want them to have. Voila, now they have their own badge and can sign up for events.

See you at Geekway 2019!
