Smash Rookie
LEVEL UP! is a gaming event to benefit LERATA, featuring classic video game titles and a Super Smash Brothers and Mario Kart Tournament that pay tribute to the earliest forms of gaming.
The 2015 LEVEL UP! tournament will consist of multiple pre-qualifying, per-title competitions held at World-8, Next-Gen, and XD LAN Internet & Gaming Center in Los Angeles. The final Tournament Championship will be held on Saturday, October 10, 2015 at Temporary Space LA. First prize winners will receive half of all entry fees collected – up to $500 in cash prizes! LEVEL UP! aims to engage guests of all skill-levels whether they choose to participate in friendly player versus player matches for the tournament or individual classic Mario console game play during the event.
The final LEVEL UP! event will include classic Mario title games that *everyone* (not just tournament participants) can play and enjoy. For even more gaming the Party Game Truck (images below) will be at our event with additional Mario games that you can play both inside and outside the truck (parked just outside Temporary Space LA)!
A silent auction featuring awesome collectibles, jewelry and more will also take place during LEVEL-UP.
Also included, the JENGA world champion will be there to compete with you…and two JENGA Giants will be included in the silent auction too. The event will include appetizers and a beer and wine bar – all games, food and drink are included with the ticket price.
The LERATA Café, located inside Temporary Space LA, will be open during the event, and features gourmet pourover coffee by Compelling and Rich, boutique tea selections by local August Uncommon, and traditional iced items. While sales proceeds normally benefit LERATA, all items will be complimentary during the Championship Tournament event.
