What is RFLAN?
RFLAN is a network computer gaming event, held multiple times a year in Perth, Western Australia, organised and run by Red Flag LAN Fest Incorporated. RFLAN brings together gamers of all ages and levels over two action packed days every few months, giving them the opportunity to prove themselves in many competitions and socialise with other like-minded people (otherwise known as 'Lanners').
From an attendee's point of view, computers are set up on tables and connected together with network cables. Tournaments comprised of many attendees are then run, with prizes for the winners. Essentials such as power, network, tables and chairs are supplied, with food and drinks available for purchase throughout the event. Attendees are able to stay overnight in the venue, either sleeping or staying awake, then pack up and leave the next day.

Curtin Stadium, Kent St Bentley
