As an adjunct to the main programme, ConVergence has made available a room (Function Room 6) for those who wish to partake in gaming during the convention.

A Rail Baron tournament will be in operation throughout the weekend as well demonstrations of a Star Wars based game. In addition, tables will be available throughout the convention for those who wish to bring their own games or utilise the variety provided by the convention.

Please note: the gaming room will not be available after midnight but there may be room available in the Hotel Y Lounge if you wish to continue after this time.

Model Making Workshop
Ever wanted to construct you own spaceship or fighter plane? Marvelled at the dexterity of other people's model making skills? Or have you started on a Klingon Warbird and become 'stuck'! All puns aside, have we got the workshop for you. Convergence will be running Model Making Workshops on the Saturday, Sunday and Monday, led by Melbourne model maker, Tony Soutter. Tony will show you how to put together your own models from kits while at the same time imparting all those little secrets and tips that take the off the shelf kits from the mundane into the extraordinary. This is a hands-on workshop - two hour sessions twice daily on Saturday and Monday, three times on Sunday.

Cost $10 for any two sessions and includes a model kit. BYO your own kit or unfinished model and the cost is only $6 for any two sessions. 3 or more sessions are an extra $4 per session each. You can sign up any time during the convention - no pre-booking required.
