Game show slated for Victorian capital for July 19-21, 2012.
The Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) was only recently announced as coming Down Under for the very first time, but now comes confirmation of which city will be hosting the event: Melbourne will be the host city, according to a report from Kotaku Australia.
Sales documents obtained by Kotaku show that PAX Australia will be held in Melbourne next year, July 19-21. The location is listed as the Melbourne Showgrounds.
