FOUNDER & CHAIRMAN
Houston Arcade Expo founder, Keith Christensen, grew up in Houston playing pinball and video games at local arcades like Good Time Charlie’s and Gold Mine. As a young adult, he enjoyed hosting house parties to share his extensive collection of games with friends. In 2002, he moved the party to Fitzgerald’s, a local music club, where the foundation was laid for the multi-day expo we enjoy today. Christensen shared, “This show has been and always will be a labor of love for everyone involved with putting it on. Our goal is not to be the biggest show in the land, but the most fun and engaging show we can have for us and all the attendees.”
