Big Gay Dinner
A celebration of LGBTQIA+ community in gaming.
Each year at PAX Unplugged, the Big Gay Dinner brings LGBTQIA+ industry professionals and gamers together to share a meal, swap stories, and build the kind of friendships and collaborations that shape careers.
In 2023 we hosted 100.
In 2024 we had 90
In 2025 we pivoted to a more intimate event focusing on connection over scale by design and felt that afterward to made a strong impact.
"There aren't many spaces in this industry where I feel I can fully exhale. The Big Gay Dinner is one of them."
