Nerdarchy Heads to Page 3: Philly Area Gaming Expo!

Next week, Nerdarchy is hitting the road as Dave and Ted attend Page 3: Philly Area Gaming Expo in Pennsylvania, and we couldn’t be more excited to be part of this growing tabletop celebration.

If you were at Page 2 last year, you already know the energy was strong and the community was welcoming. This year, the convention is leveling up in a big way. More games, more space, and more attendees mean more opportunities to roll dice, try new systems, and connect with fellow gamers who love tabletop roleplaying games, board games, and all things nerdy as much as we do.

Page 3 has quickly carved out a reputation as a convention that feels personal while still expanding its reach. It’s the kind of event where you can jump from a demo table to a deep conversation about campaign design, then sit down with creators and players who genuinely want to share their passion for gaming. That blend of community focus and growing ambition makes it exactly the kind of con Nerdarchy loves to support.

Dave and Ted will be there soaking it all in—playing games, meeting fans, checking out new content, and connecting with fellow creators and vendors. If you’re attending, be sure to say hello! We always love talking D&D, RPG design, worldbuilding, house rules, and whatever wild ideas are currently living rent-free in your campaign.

As Page 3 continues to grow, it’s exciting to see another regional convention step confidently into a larger spotlight. Events like this help keep the tabletop community thriving, bringing new players into the hobby while giving longtime gamers fresh inspiration.

One of the biggest upgrades this year is how much there is to play. Game spots are available across a wide range of systems, with tables dedicated to demos, one-shots, and learn-to-play sessions. Whether you’re looking to try something brand new, jump into a familiar favorite, or discover your next campaign obsession, Page 3 makes it easy to get into a game and get rolling. With more space and more tables than ever before, there’s far less standing around and far more dice hitting the table.

That expanded play space is matched by a massive 30,000 square foot vendor hall, making Page 3 a must-visit destination for anyone who loves tabletop gaming gear, books, and accessories. This year’s hall features gaming industry giants like WizKids, Dwarven Forge, Troll Lord Games, The Arcane Library, Goodman Games, Pacesetter Games, Palladium Books, Black Oak Workshop, and many more—over 100 vendors in total.

From beautifully crafted terrain and miniatures to rulebooks, adventures, and must-have GM tools, the vendor area is packed with opportunities to support both legendary publishers and exciting independent creators. It’s the perfect place to discover new games, talk directly with the people who make them, and walk away with something that will immediately improve your next session at the table.

Between readily available game spots and a vendor hall this large, Page 3: Philly Area Gaming Expo is clearly stepping into a new tier of convention experience—one that balances accessibility, variety, and community in a way tabletop gamers truly appreciate. Plus so many cool guests. You can check out their socials to see all the amazing guests lined up for panels, games, signings and more.

Whether you’re there for epic adventures, innovative indie games, or just to hang out with people who get why rolling math rocks is awesome, Page 3: Philly Area Gaming Expo is shaping up to be a fantastic weekend—and Nerdarchy is proud to be part of it.
