 i38 Launched
Our i38 early-bird promotion has now been launched. For those of you wanting to get in on a chunky 20% discount on your tickets, just head on over and book now.
Already been to loads of our events and earned yourself a Gold discount level? You’ll get yourself free Early Arrival Service on top of your discount, saving yourself over £30!
i38 is set for 13-16 November, offers an initial 1500 BYOC/BYOX spaces and sees us returning to Newbury Racecourse, arguably the spiritual home of LAN gaming in the UK.
Newbury: The Return
With the return to Newbury, come some changes in the event. As always, we’re working hard to take on suggestions and feedback to improve the events for you guys. Newbury and Stoneleigh are both very different venues, and both have their pros and cons. For those of you not familiar with Newbury, here are some of the key things on offer:
Indoor sleeping space – limited indoor sleeping space, in what we call the “Red Rooms”, named for the glow given off by the heating system, is available. This is a free service, and an alternative to camping in what could be a cold event.
Camping – There is ample free camping available for use at i38, with certain areas being designated Quiet Areas.
Multiple Room Atmosphere – At Stoneleigh some people feel some of the atmosphere is lost in one big hall without people sitting in their designated game areas. At Newbury and the LAN is spread over several floors, meaning we can once again have the electric atmosphere of being surrounded by your mates and 300 other CSS players, whilst a more relaxed setting to raid in peace in other areas.
Transport links – Newbury Racecourse is ideally located on the A34 and M4 junction and has its own railway station on the main line to London Paddington.
Local Amenities – With the city centre within walking distance, including major shops such as Sainsbury’s and Tescos, getting those all important supplies and cash is a lot easier.
Pizza to the Desk – A major pizza chain will be back with an on-site presence and delivery direct to your seat in the LAN.
Clan boxes – A unique feature at Newbury that is always in high demand is the concept of private clan boxes. Usually used for corporate hospitality on race days, these offer space for between 11 and 44 gamers, allowing a “LAN within a LAN” feel.
The Tote Bar – set in a separate building right next to the main grandstand and with a real pub feel, the Tote was a favourite with many of our regulars at Newbury. With ample seating inside and out, serving real ales and the usual assortment of draft pints and spirits, the Tote is an oasis for those wishing to take a break from the gaming and chill out.
However, with i38 being at Newbury it doesn’t mean we won’t be returning to Stoneleigh Park. We will still be looking at the venue in the future for our largest events. We feel there are different benefits to each venue, with the summer event likely to be at Stoneleigh once again.
