Can't make it to Halo Fest? Follow me!
We're planning our own celebration in November at Localhost Denver: a full weekend of Bungie Halo on LAN!
- Cheaper: airline, airbnb, and venue
- Better: Halo being played on OG Xbox, 360, MLG rules
- Winner: big cash pool and less teams

It was a golden era of gaming.

@2ray_degenemax The Halo LAN never died; it evolved! We have been hosting 16+ Xbox LANs in Colorado, USA monthly for over 3 years. We have perfected the formula. 90% of our players are over 30 and many have kids + full time jobs, only having time to play once a week at most. Never surrender!

@Pyresek This year sometime!! We have everything we need now (8+ Xbox 360s)

All of our LANs are open to the public, played on original hardware (OG Xbox & Xbox 360), and utilize schoolyard drafts to balance teams.

Check out our newest livestream on YouTube, playing Halo 3 this last weekend!

@IPHOTONI THIS IS SO COOL! I guess we could technically cater a LAN in NoCo - tell your friends!

@MintBlitz The Halo LAN 2026

[James Mantas @JamesMantas]

@GamewithDave @evolved117 Loveland, Colorado! I started USA's biggest monthly Classic Halo in-person LAN at the @GoGamesAhoy in Fort Collins - these physical media shops, especially hybrid shops that generate profit with TCGs and event space, are fertile ground for retro game meetups like @ColoradoEvolved

Here are some photos from our last few monthly LANs.
Our next *big* LAN will be first weekend in April in Denver, in cooperation with other local Halo groups, for a multi-game 3Y LANniversary!
Classic Halo is making a huge comeback - and Colorado is the epicenter.
#ReturnoftheLAN

The Halo LAN epitomizes the Golden Era of console couch multiplayer. We run it back in Colorado - but better.
