The Frontline Gaming Rocky Mountain Open 2023 is just a few days away! This inagural Rocky Mountain Open is going to be epic and really has only been possible because of the supportive local community leaders! Please read below to find out about check in, food, and all the basics.
Registration/Check In:
Before arrival to the Rocky Mountain Open, please make sure you have your ticket receipt (digital QR code or just a printout please), so you can quickly get the correlating swag for the various events you are participating in and any items that are included in packages you may have purchased.
***Special note for events using BCP***
If you are playing in the 40K Champs or AoS Champs, please make sure to check in on the BCP app up to 24 hours before the event. You should have gotten a token emailed to you that allows you to register for the event in BCP. Once registered in BCP and on the event’s roster, you can then upload your list. IMPORTANT: You should be checked in to BCP before you enter the hall so that pairing can go live ASAP and we can begin round 1 on time.

Location:
This event takes place in the Exhibit Hall at the Adams County Fairgrounds (9755 Henderson Rd Bldg. 1, Brighton, CO 80601) located within the Riverdale Regional Park
This is on the side of the city near the Denver airport! It is about a 20 min Uber from the airport to the venue. With a lot of players coming in town you may be able to share an uber or catch a ride with a local if you post on community pages!
Hall Hours:
The Exhibit Hall will be open to the public from 8AM to 8PM Saturday and Sunday
Food and Drink:
There will be several food trucks parked in front of the Exhibit Hall for lunch both days. They are supposed to be awesome, local favorites! At the Rocky Mountain Open you are free to also bring your own food and snacks to the hall.
There will be a full service bar IN THE HALL offering drinks at very reasonable prices. While you CAN bring your own water, you may NOT bring your own alcoholic beverages in the hall. Anyone caught bringing in outside alcohol (beer, liquor, etc) will politely be asked to leave for the day by the Fairgrounds Management.
Event Social:
Join the regional community coordinators and their clubs at the Rocky Mountain Open social at the Windfall Brewery, a short drive away from the fairgrounds in the Orchard Town center on Saturday night at 8:30PM.
There is no charge to attend but we must use tickets to control the number of people coming. There will be some some free apps courtesy of Windfall and the Legion 5280 club. This awesome brewery and restaurant not only has legit food and drink, but also a legendary arcade with some classic pinball machines! Our group will likely be taking over one of the outside fireside patios based on weather and # of attendees.
To attend this event, you must get a ticket from HERE.

At ANY time from Saturday at 8am to Sunday at 10AM you can come by the front desk and get your Frontline Gaming Event Swag.
