How big is a Con Table?

[moticon]

How big would you say the round tables you typically see at GenCON or Origins are?

Would you say 60" (5') or 72" (6') diameter?

I'm making a custom round mat to use on such tables and want to leave space for the player's but have a perfect round mat to fill the middle of the table for drawing and such.

I would guess 6', but I do not know for certain.

That's kind of big for a round table in general.

The Hyatt mentions a 50" diameter table for some of their conference rooms. Some of the con games spill over to the Hyatt.

I work in a convention center. Our round tables come in 72" (6' -- seats 10) and 60" (5' -- seats 8). I would venture to guess that you're looking at a 5' table at the very largest, 6' doesn't sound that big, but in a small room it is really huge, and you'd have a hard time reaching the center from the edge without standing up and leaning over it.

Depends on the room... I've seen round tables in the 4, 5 and 6 foot varieties and rectangular tables in the 1 x 3, up to 2.5 x 7 foot varieties.

It's really hard to say for certain unless you know where you are going to be and can request a certain table for that room. The best thing to do is talk to your event coordinator and see if your room can have a specific sized table or not.

If this is for a pick-up game, you may not even have a table, or a room for that matter.
