    Default Retro Gaming Convention in The Netherlands 15-1-12

    Hey everyone,

    After a lot of work I'm proud to anounce that the 15th of january 2012 there will be a big Retro Gaming Convention in "Den Draai" in Deurne.
    This convention in the south of the Netherlands is only a short ride from most parts of Holland and Belgium!
    So after all the conventions in the north of Holland, there will finally be a convention in the south!

    At the convention traders, resellers and collectors will display, trade and sell their retro games.
    From MSX to Atari and Playstation 2 to Gamecube, anything you'd want will be there.
    With more then 150 tables of gaming goodness and an arcade event this will be a convention you don't want to miss!

    The information
    - Location: Den Draai, Blasiusstraat 2, 5754 AV, Deurne (Zijlberg)
    - Time: 10.00 - 16.00
    - Entrance fee: 2 euro (kids below 12 are free with a supporting adult)
    - over 150 tables of retro goodness
    - Arcade event with prizes
    - Catering and abundant parking space
    - Easy to reach with public transport, 10 min walk from the train station

    In order to make this fair a succes we try to spread the news in as many ways as possible.
    You can help us out with that by joining us on Facebook and telling your friends about it!t te nodigen!
