The event will be held in the Curio at Maker Exchange in downtown Knoxville.

The Maker Exchange prohibits any outside food or drink. That said, the Exchange has a tavern directly across from the Curio that is open all day. Maker Exchange is also located within walking distance of Knoxville's Market Square, which has ample dining options for lunch and dinner breaks.

Maker Exchange is nestled between two hotels in downtown Knoxville, with several other lodging options within walking distance.

Knoxville's annual tabletop game design convention!

What is a Protospiel? It's a weekend of playing, testing, and offering feedback on games in various stages of completion. Publishers possibly present.

Fri, June 9 2023, 12:00pm - 10:00pm

Sat, June 10 2023, 10:00am - 10:00pm

Sun, June 11 2023, 10:00am - 6:00pm

Badges for designers, playtesters, and publishers are available now!

Designers are welcome to bring any game prototypes they are working on - be they a ready-to-pitch projects that just need some refinement, or brand new concepts written on sticky notes and scrap paper. We only ask that you practice reciprocity: For every hour you spend testing your game, you should spend at least one hour testing someone else's.

Panels TBA.
