The Overclockers UK team has just got back from EPIC 39! In this post, we’ve got all the highlights from the event.
From a new location to the most exciting horse race you’ve ever seen, plenty went on alongside gaming at EPIC 39.
EPIC.LAN Has A New Location?
In April, Kettering Conference Centre, AKA the home of EPIC LAN for the last decade, announced they would be closing their doors permanently. The team at EPIC LAN quickly pulled together an alternative location for EPIC 39, moving the event by just a week to fit into Wolverhampton Racecourse’s event schedule.
Is this the end of EPIC LAN in Kettering? Well, it seems like it might not be! Last week, the team confirmed in a tweet EPIC 40 would return to their spiritual home of Kettering this October.
