Both Stumptown and Granite Game Summits happened early in 2020 and they were luckily one of the last good memories before a long period of uncertainty. When we decided to bring back Granite Game Summit in 2022, we were still uncertain if we would be able to pull it off. We wanted to make sure our event was as safe and happy as it possibly could be. So we charged ahead with what made our event great at its core.
G2S2022 is SOLD OUT
Wow! We were not anticipating the badges selling out so quickly. Thank you to our community for showing us such excitement for the return of Granite Game Summit.

We here at G2S are a small group. There is only three of us who plan and organize our event so that hundreds of people can come together to game and have a good time. When it comes to the weekend of the event, we need a few more helping hands to assist in providing a smooth, meaningful experience for all. We need your help to make that happen.

Spring Summit Announcement
Thank you for helping make Granite Game Summit such a big success. After selling out for the first two events we have decided to expand.
Play to Win Tutorials
One of my favorite parts of the Granite Game Summit is the "Play to Win" track. How cool is it that you can come to a gaming event and have a chance to win just by playing a game? Sometimes these games are well known classics, other times they are brand new and is a fun way to generate buzz around them. But one aspect of it is that it can be daunting to sit down and try to learn the game while at the event itself.
