About Redflag Lanfest
A temporary, sometimes spontaneous, gathering of people together with their computers, which they network together primarily for the purpose of playing multiplayer computer games. These local area networks (LANs) come in various sizes, from very small (two people) to very large (more than 6,500 people).

Founded by three local gaming enthusiasts in April 2000, Red Flag Lan Fest Inc (also known as Red Flag or RFLAN) is Perth's largest cyberathletics and electronic gaming organisation.
Well known for the RFLAN Gaming Events, Red Flag has established itself as a respected and successful organisation over its decade-long history. Red Flag brings the concept of a network computer gaming event, otherwise known as a LAN Party, to the heart of Western Australia.
Red Flag brings together gamers of all ages and levels over two action packed days every few months, giving them the opportunity to prove themselves in a range of competitions and socialise with other like minded people (otherwise known as 'Lanners').
Red Flag Lan Fest Inc, is a not-for-profit organisation that relies on support from sponsors, volunteers and the Western Australian gaming community, in order to succeed. All income generated by the organisation is used to pay for the running of each event, and any remaining revenue helps to fund future events and infrastructure improvements to make each one bigger and better than the last!
Attendees have the opportunity to battle it out in games such as:
- Starcraft 2
- Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
- Counter-Strike Source
- Team Fortress 2
- League of Legends
- Minecraft
- Super Smash Bros Melee
- TrackMania Nations
- .... and many more!
