PAX AUS + Melbourne Marathon 2026 review | ColourShed

The video documents a three-day trip to Melbourne from October 9-11, 2026, to attend PAX Australia, the nation's largest gaming expo. The event featured demos of upcoming and indie titles, gaming hardware, tabletop and card games, cosplay displays, and a series of panels. The creator also highlights meeting friends and exploring the expo's broader offerings.

In addition to the expo, the creator ran the Melbourne Marathon over the same weekend. The marathon is an annual race that has been part of the Melbourne Marathon Festival since 1978. He notes that completing both events was a significant physical undertaking.

The review notes that despite the demanding schedule, the creator's legs "didn't completely dissolve," underscoring the endurance required. The footage combines on-site coverage of PAX Australia's gaming showcases with scenes from the marathon route. Viewers receive a concise overview of both the gaming convention and the marathon experience.
