Come and join us for the event that started it all here at Frontline Gaming, the Bay Area Open! The BAO is the longest running FLG event and is fully part of Kublacon for 2024!!!! Please read on to see how to get your tickets and plus learn about all the epic swag INCLUDED with each and every ticket!
This two day event will take place over May 25-26th, 2024 in the primary meeting space of the Crowne Plaza SFO (located at 1177 Airport Blvd, Burlingame, CA 94010 – just outside the the San Francisco airport). For those flying in, there is a free shuttle to and from the airport.
For 2024, the BAO will be attached to Kublacon and each ticket for a BAO 2024 tournament includes a 4 day Kublacon Convention Badge (valued at $90) if your ticket is purchased by May 10th.
***IMPORTANT NOTE for 2024 ***
Sadly due to the restricted space that we have for this transitional year that Kublacon is going through(as they prepare for serious growth in the near future), we are unable to host an Age of Sigmar, Song of Ice and Fire, Star Wars Legion, or Marvel Crisis Protocol tournaments at BAO 2024 unless they were significantly smaller in size than what Frontline Gaming attendees are used to. Upon discussing with the regional community organizers, we felt it was best to not run tiny tournaments at BAO for these games and instead support regional events that are able to expand and support a larger number of players. We apologize that we cannot accommodate all game systems this year, but we do hope to bring all game systems back for BAO 2025.
