So Wyrmwood just released their convention schedule
https://wyrmwoodgaming.com/about-us/convention-schedule-2018/
And they have two cons taking place when Pax usually does (if I'm reading this right.)
But they confirm that they will be at West with TBA. Could it mean a mid-Sept date?
Apologies if it's early but I got kinda excited for new info.

And it's definitely something new. The idea of it happening in September is pretty wild IMO. This should be interesting to keep an eye on.

However, if you look at the booked events at the WSCC there is a conspicuous gap on Labor Day. PAX requires time (supposedly a whole week) both before and after the event for setup and teardown. Another method to tell when PAX will be is look for hotel bookings. The Sheraton is showing sold out for Labor Day weekend, but not any of the other weekends in September. This is because blocks of rooms are reserved to be released when badges go on sale.
I agree. I started looking for hotels to book hella early - basically, a week after PAX West was finished. I noticed that most of the hotels in the area were already booked for Labor Day Weekend.

you and youngfrey repeated pretty much exact earlier posts you already made in this same thread
A bunch of new events have been added to the WSCC September calendar. Unless PAX is sharing the convention center with other events, it seems like the second, third, and fourth weekends of September might be out.
The largest block of time with no events scheduled is August 22nd - September 7th. That would be plenty of time for setup and teardown if they keep it on Labor Day weekend!

Checking this link today shows Pax West as "Dates TBD."

You are far braver than I would ever be but I have a feeling it will pay off! Fortune favors the bold after all.
It's probable enough that I'll be hitting F5 on the PAX West page for the next few days. Maybe on the PAX Dev page too, just in case.
It is very likely PAX West will be over Labor Day weekend. We have no particular reason to suspect badges will go on sale before May.
Copied from the Badge thread:
At this point, I'm just hyped about getting any new info, even if I can't buy my badges yet!
PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAXXXXXXXXXXX!
Found this on the Visit Seattle tourism site - https://www.visitseattle.org/events/pax-west-2019/
Nothing is official of course, but yet another data point for folks. Unfortunately my favorite hotel is completely sold out for that weekend
