I'm not quite sure what to expect. I've talked with a few folks who've said its nothing short of awesome, especially because its designed so that you play a lot, meet people, and have a ton of fun.

Any tips on what to expect / what to bring?
How much do the catered lunches cost? What kinds of food do they serve?
Are there locker rooms?
Are there areas to walk around outside and get a bit of fresh air?

Aside: do they have a Space Invaders cab at the PAPA facility?

I usually bring a backpack in with me that has some things to snack on during the day as you're there basically from 11am to 10pm with the only real chance to leave for dinner.

They have lockers that you can rent to store stuff in.

There is a parking lot outside where people tailgate, go out for a smoke, etc, so yes, there is space to walk around and get fresh air.

It's my favorite event of the year - you're gonna love it.

OP
Quoted from Shpwizard:
I'm going to my first Pinburgh this April! Yay!

Glad you can go.

Keep in mind things you like/didn't like. Should have brought with/should have left home.

That will make next year even better !
