The official QuakeCon web site posts first details about what's in store for the popular LAN gathering (thanks Blue). Those of you who are interested, should know that the show is scheduled for August 2-5, 2007, and will be held at the Hilton Anatole Hotel in Dallas, TX.

This year's gathering promises to include more gaming, events and exhibits than ever before... well, that's according to the announcement anyways. BYOC registration opens on March 2, 2007.

This year’s BYOC Area will consume the entire Trinity Hall 1, with over 70,000 square feet of floor space and 2,700 player spots – over 1,000 more seats than 2006. We’ve also increased the exhibit area 5X to 25,000 square feet, enough to accommodate up to 50 exhibitors demonstrating their latest games and computer hardware. Of course, it wouldn’t be QuakeCon without our high-stakes pro gaming tournaments; and attendees can also look forward to the return and expansion of our enormously popular and one-of-a-kind “Quick Draw” tournaments, which pit randomly selected attendees against each other in high-pressure battles for serious cash. And in keeping with QuakeCon tradition, every day will be packed full of contests, conferences, announcements, and entertainment.
