WOLSLAN provides the core infrastructure for a full day of gaming: a chair, desk, and wired LAN connection for each attendee, plus multiple reverse-cycle air conditioners, accessible toilets within close reach, and on-site food and drink options. You bring your own PC and peripherals. The next event runs 03/10/2026, 10am to 10pm, at 30 Gnangara Drive, Waikiki, WA, 6169.

What WOLSLAN Provides On Site

The event supplies the furniture and networking so you don't have to haul a desk across Perth:

• Chair and desk — provided for every attendee
• LAN network — wired connection provided; you do not need to bring a network cable
• Air conditioning — multiple reverse-cycle units keep the room comfortable
• Toilets — accessible toilets are within close reach
• Parking — plenty of parking with easy access to the event
• Canteen — food and drinks available on site

What You Need to Bring

Since WOLSLAN provides the desk, chair, and network, your packing list is your own hardware:

• Desktop PC + monitor
• Mouse + mouse mat
• Keyboard
• Power cables (PC + monitor)
• Power board
• Display cable (for monitor)
• Snacks / drinks (optional — there's also a canteen)

A network cable is explicitly not needed.

Food and Drink Options

There's a canteen at the event itself, so you don't have to leave the venue to eat. If you'd rather step out, nearby options include:

• Subway
• Chicken Treat
• ALDI
• Woolworths

You're also welcome to bring your own snacks and drinks.

Items That Are Banned

WOLSLAN enforces a zero-tolerance policy on some items, and others are banned for practical reasons:

Comfort and Accessibility Summary

If your main concern is staying comfortable across a 12-hour session (10am–10pm), the air conditioning and accessible toilets cover the essentials, and the on-site canteen plus nearby shops mean you don't need to plan far ahead for food. Parking is straightforward, which matters if you're carrying a full desktop setup.

One practical note: the event page lists the price as $15, pay at the door, while also stating that event 103 is free in celebration. Check the current event listing before you go so you know which applies to the date you're attending.

Standard entry to WOLSLAN is $15, paid at the door. The exception is a milestone event: the listing for event 103 states that it is free in celebration of that edition. So the price you pay depends on which event you attend — check the current event page before you go.

Pricing at a glance

What the fee covers

Your entry covers the seat and the setup around it: WOLSLAN provides the chair, desk, and LAN network. You don't need to bring a network cable — that's supplied.

What you bring yourself is the machine and everything plugged into it: desktop PC, monitor, mouse and mouse mat, keyboard, power cables for the PC and monitor, a power board, and a display cable. Snacks and drinks are also on you, though there's a canteen at the event and nearby food options including Subway, Chicken Treat, ALDI, and Woolworths.

Event details to plan around

• Date (as listed): 03/10/2026
• Time: 10am to 10pm
• Address: 30 Gnangara Drive, Waikiki, WA, 6169
• Parking: Plenty available, with easy access to the event
• Comfort: Multiple reverse-cycle air conditioners
• Toilets: Accessible toilets within close reach

Before you pay at the door

A few things worth doing in advance, based on the event's own checklist:

• Pack everything on the bring list — a missing power or display cable is the usual reason a setup won't boot.
• Update your Steam games beforehand so you're not downloading over the event network.
• Double-check your travel arrangements, since the venue is in Waikiki, south of Perth.
• Invite friends — it's a social event, and the door price is per person.

What not to bring

Some items are banned outright, and turning up with them can affect your entry:

• Loudspeakers or other loud devices that disturb people nearby
• Whitegoods such as fridges, toasters, or kettles
• Servers (loud fans)
• Alcohol or drugs — zero tolerance policy

The short answer

Budget $15 in cash or card at the door for a normal WOLSLAN event, and confirm on the event page first — milestone events like event 103 have been free. The fee buys you a desk, a chair, and a wired LAN connection; everything else in your setup comes with you.

The next WOLSLAN LAN party is on 3 October 2026, running from 10am to 10pm, at 30 Gnangara Drive, Waikiki, WA, 6169. Entry is $15, paid at the door — except for this event, which the site lists as free in celebration of event 103. If you're planning to go, the practical details below cover timing, getting there, parking, and where to eat nearby.

Date and time

It's a single-day event, so you're looking at a 12-hour session. Arriving at 10am gives you the full day; the venue closes at 10pm.

Location and parking

The address is 30 Gnangara Drive, Waikiki, WA, 6169.

Parking is straightforward: the site states there is plenty of parking available with easy access to the event. That matters for a LAN party, since you'll be carrying a desktop PC, monitor, and peripherals from your car — a short, simple walk from parking to your desk is the difference between one trip and three.

Getting there and what's nearby

Waikiki is in Perth's southern suburbs. If you're coming from further out, double-check your travel arrangements before the day — the site's own pre-event checklist includes confirming your travel plans.

If you need food during the day:

• Subway, Chicken Treat, ALDI, and Woolworths are all nearby.
• There is also a canteen at the event itself.
• You're welcome to bring your own snacks and drinks.

Comfort and facilities

• Aircon: multiple reverse-cycle air conditioners keep the room comfortable — worth knowing for a 12-hour event in October.
• Toilets: accessible toilets are within close reach.
• Chairs, desks, and LAN network cables are provided, so you don't need to bring your own seating or networking gear.

Before you go

The site's checklist for attendees:

• Pack all the items you need (see the full bring list — desktop PC, monitor, mouse and mat, keyboard, power cables, power board, and display cable).
• Update your Steam games beforehand so you're not downloading over the event network.
• Double-check your travel arrangements.
• Invite your friends.

Leave at home: loudspeakers or other loud devices, whitegoods like fridges/toasters/kettles, servers (loud fans), and alcohol or drugs — the event has a zero-tolerance policy on the last one.

Snacks and drinks are welcome, and there is also a canteen on site. Leave loudspeakers, whitegoods, servers, and alcohol or drugs at home.

Cost and timing

The listed price is $15, paid at the door. The next event runs 03/10/2026 from 10am to 10pm. Note that the site also advertises a free event in celebration of event 103 — check the current event page before you go, since pricing can vary by event.

WOLSLAN is a bring-your-own-computer LAN party in Perth, Western Australia, and it describes itself as Perth's longest-running LAN party. You bring a desktop PC and peripherals, and the organisers supply the chair, desk, and network connection. It suits people who want a social, in-person gaming session with friends rather than an online-only event. The next listed event is 03/10/2026, running 10am to 10pm at 30 Gnangara Drive, Waikiki, WA, 6169.

What you actually get at the event

The core offer is simple: you supply the gaming hardware, WOLSLAN supplies the physical setup and the LAN.

Note that a network cable is not needed — the organisers provide this. That's a common thing people over-pack for at LAN events, so it's worth leaving yours at home.

What to pack (and what to leave behind)

The site publishes a checklist, which is the most reliable way to avoid turning up without something essential.

Bring:

• Desktop PC + monitor
• Mouse + mouse mat
• Keyboard
• Power cables for both PC and monitor
• Power board
• Display cable for the monitor
• Snacks / drinks (a canteen is also available on site)

Do not bring:

• Loudspeakers or other loud devices that could annoy people nearby
• Whitegoods such as fridges, toasters, or kettles
• Servers (the organisers cite loud fans as the reason)
• Alcohol or drugs — the event states a zero-tolerance policy

The organisers also suggest preparing beforehand by packing everything you need, updating your Steam games, double-checking travel arrangements, and inviting friends.

Practical details: location, food, comfort

• Address: 30 Gnangara Drive, Waikiki, WA, 6169
• Parking: The site says there is plenty of parking with easy access to the event.
• Food and drinks: A canteen runs at the event, and nearby options include Subway, Chicken Treat, ALDI, and Woolworths.
• Aircon: Multiple reverse-cycle air conditioners are used to keep the room comfortable.
• Toilets: Accessible toilets are within close reach.

Cost and how to decide

The site lists a door price of $15, paid at the door, for the standard event. It also shows a separate free event in celebration of event 103 — so pricing can vary by event, and the free entry applies to that specific occasion rather than to WOLSLAN generally.

If you're weighing it up:

• WOLSLAN fits you if you have a desktop PC you can transport, you want a full-day (10am–10pm) in-person session, and you prefer an organised venue with power, network, aircon, and food nearby handled for you.
• WOLSLAN may not fit you if you only game on a laptop you'd rather not haul around, you want to bring your own speakers or a server, or you're looking for an event with alcohol — the policy is zero tolerance.

Because the event runs a full 12 hours, plan for power, food, and breaks rather than assuming you'll step out mid-session. Checking the WOLSLAN site before attending is the safest way to confirm the current date, price, and any event-specific changes, since the free-entry offer shown applies to one particular event.
