APLAN: Austin Public Library LAN Party

2500 Exposition Boulevard, Austin, TX 78703Austin, TX

About This Event

Every fourth Monday of the month, join us at Howson for a night of epic multiplayer battles, hilariously catastrophic fails, snacks, music, and good vibes as we relive the glory days of Xbox Live through the lens of its most iconic franchises.

Whether you're a seasoned Spartan, a Jedi Master, a Legendary Gunslinger, or are just looking for some nostalgic fun, come frag your friends (and maybe make some new ones!)

We owe a special thanks to The Library Foundation for making it possible for us to have more console games available!

Looking for something a little more casual? Then relax your trigger finger, and join us for Arcade Night!

Every first Monday of the month, join us at Howson as we bring our community together to kick back and enjoy a more casual and accessible gaming experience full of desperate button mashing, music, snacks, and raucous laughter as we delve into the world of party games, from the more social, to the turn-based, to the endlessly chaotic.

These events will be Adults Only (18+)!
