Northeast Championship 18

Big E Gaming has been providing the East Coast with premiere Fighting Game Community (FGC) events for 18 years. Primarily based in Philadelphia, PA, we are known for three of the largest annual major tournaments on the East Coast. Northeast Championship (NEC) draws over 2000+ players per year from all over the world. NEC is Big E Gaming’s longest running (18 years) event that ends the FGC year in a 54,000 sq ft convention center floor. This year, we’ll have a wide variety of featured live-stream tournaments, a casual game system section, an artist alley, 2 arcade sections, a cosplay contest, and more! Our official motto is “One Floor, One Family.”
