WHERE GAMING MEETS AV INNOVATION AT PAX EAST & ARENA

When the world of gaming comes together at PAX East, it's more than just a convention, it's a high-energy, multi-day celebration of everything players love about gaming culture. For Reaction AV, that meant building immersive spaces where fans could play, watch, and compete in unforgettable ways.

In partnership with ReedPop, Reaction AV designed and executed two major experiences: the PAX East Main Stage and the PAX Arena. Both featured bold visuals, powerful sound, and technical designs built for a crowd that expects nothing less than epic.

PAX East Main Stage

The Main Stage at PAX East isn’t just a backdrop—it’s a central attraction where panels, performances, and announcements unfold in front of thousands of fans.

Reaction AV’s Contributions:

  • Massive LED Wall as the visual centerpiece

  • Beam and Wash Lighting to create dynamic atmosphere

  • LED Bar Effects for color accents and movement

  • Two Large Projector Screens flanking the stage for enhanced visibility

  • Fully Tuned Sound System designed for both clarity and impact

  • Lighting + Projection Effects to create a vibrant, high-energy environment

From colored lighting washes to fun graphic projections, every visual element was crafted to excite the crowd. Meanwhile, our robust audio setup ensured every panelist, host, and performer could be seen and heard—whether you were in the front row or at the back of the hall.

PAX Arena

A high-stakes competition space needs more than just tables and chairs—it needs to feel like an arena. That's exactly what we built.

Arena Features by Reaction AV:

  • Custom 4-Sided LED Jumbotron built entirely from LED tiles

  • Live Stream Infrastructure managed and executed by Reaction AV

  • Gaming Zones for digital and tabletop tournaments

  • Prizing + Player Moments captured live for in-person and online fans

The PAX Arena was all about community and competition. From casual fans to serious contenders, attendees stepped into a space where every match was spotlighted. Reaction AV managed the full production—from LED display builds to broadcast-quality streaming—bringing the action to fans on-site and online.

Lighting was strategically designed to enhance the stage, highlight signage, and create a polished atmosphere. With distinguished speakers, including the Mayor of Long Beach, crisp and balanced audio was essential. Our expert audio configuration ensured every word was heard with clarity.
