Tickets for UK-based gaming convention PLAY Expo are now on sale, Replay Events has announced today.

PLAY Expo, which is now into its fourth year, will be held at EventCity, Manchester, from October 10 to October 11.

According to Replay Events, PLAY Expo attracted “19,000 attendees through the doors of the highly successful two-day event last October.”

Andy Brown, director of Replay Events, revealed that 2014’s PLAY Expo “was a huge leap forward for us in terms of scale and ambition,” but this year’s event will “smash all previous records out of the water.”

While gaming is a central focus of PLAY Expo -- there are retro, AAA and indie titles available on the show floor, of course -- past conventions have featured a whole host of different exhibitions and events, including cosplay competitions, celebrity appearances and eSports tournaments.

“We pride ourselves on being the most diverse gaming expo in the UK -- where else can you see so many of the latest games and technologies alongside arcades, pinballs, retro consoles and computers?” Brown explained.

“The response we get from the gaming community is overwhelming, we’re immensely proud of what the show has become and we look forward to delivering yet another phenomenal event to our audience and partners this October.”
