MAGLabs is back as a FREE 1-day hands-on maker event! Free-play crafts will be in the taproom and under the tent outside. There will also be guided workshops where you can learn a more complex project, like making a leather pet collar!

Local indie developers will be on-site showing off their newest games for you to try out! The pinball room will be open for coin-op play, and for more gaming fun you can check out the Dugout Arcade!

Join the MAGFest Jam Clinic to take part in open jams on the outside stage all afternoon, and stay in the evening for concerts! Check page links above for more info!

What is MAGLabs?

MAGFest Laboratories, aka "MAGLabs," uplifts the **MAGFest values** of **participation** and **experimentation**, giving everyone the opportunity to create their own adventure! Building community through making, this event series gives attendees the opportunity to both learn from and participate in the endless creativity and passion of the gaming community.
MAGLabs has been on hiatus since 2018, but the event is currently being reimagined as a series of one-day events starting in 2025 that will include various workshops, games, musical guests, and more!

Get Involved

MAGLabs does not have a need for additional volunteers at this time, but this may change as the event continues to grow! If you have an idea and/or workshop to propose for future events, please feel free to reach out to the MAGLabs team at maglabs-relaunch@magfest.org.
