Las Vegas, Nevada, USA will play host to this year's Fan Faire hosted by Sony Online Entertainment. Here are the particulars:

If you've never been to an SOE Fan Faire before, you've been missing out! Fan Faire is a great place for SOE gamers to mix and mingle with each other and meet some of the faces behind their favorite SOE games. Here's just a taste of some of the great stuff we're planning:

• In-game tournaments
• Live, game-themed tournaments and quests
• A costume contest
• Lots of social activities, including a Kickoff Reception, a Grand Banquet and a VIP Party with live entertainment
• Sneak peaks at SOE titles currently in development
• The 2nd Annual Community Address from SOE President John Smedley
• Developer forums and roundtables

And that's just the beginning! No matter which SOE game you like to play, Fan Faire will be a blast! Even if you're not an SOE gamer, we encourage you to join us and bring your friends!

Passes will go on sale later this Spring, but you can book your hotel stay now! The Las Vegas Hilton is currently accepting reservations at the discounted Fan Faire rate of just $139 per night.
