All about LAN Party List

By the community, for the community. LAN Party List has a rich history with progenitors reaching back to 2006. Over time the spirit of the website has been through various revisions: humble beginnings as a local event listing site in British Columbia, then expanding outwards to Canada as LAN Party EH on the national level. The current site serves as a focal point for LAN Party goers worldwide.

LAN Party List serves the community as a networking resource for events, and an independent media outlet.
