After a Covid hiatus, Africa’s biggest LAN is back, with rAge 2022 taking place at the Gallagher Convention Centre from 9 to 11 December.
This year, pre-registration will open before ticket sales go live, to allow more gamers to secure their spots.
Pre-registration is open now on Howler and will close on 31 August.
“On 1 September we will start at the top of the pre-registration list and work our way down until all the available tickets are allocated,” says Michael James, project director at rAge. “A link will be sent via email, taking you to a ticketing page, where you will have 48 hours to complete your online ticket purchase.
“While pre-registration does not mean you will automatically get a ticket, your chances are better with the new system. The list will also serve as a waiting list, so if you’re on the list and someone returns their ticket, and you’re next in line, you will be able to buy that ticket.
“We hope that this process will minimise scalping, allow more people the opportunity to get their hands on a ticket – as tickets will be also limited to two per person – and will give a better understanding of the number of people who are interested in joining us at the LAN,” he adds.
Incredible Connection will bring their All Star Gaming offer to rAge by giving each NAG LAN attendee a R200 voucher to spend at their retail store at rAge Expo 2022.
NAG will run tournaments on its Nutanix-sponsored servers in the run-up to rAge 2022, and will also stream the event live from the show floor.
Clear Access is providing the 30Gbps Internet connection using the Clear Access Neutrino product for the NAG LAN.
