Junction Jam (Midwest US 2026) is an in-person, 2-day weekend round-trip game jam where jammers starting in multiple cities (Minneapolis/St. Paul, Kansas City, St. Louis) begin their games on an Amtrak train to Chicago.

Jammers already based in Chicago will start at the same time at a local venue, and as each train arrives, will welcome their traveling peers for an evening event featuring dinner, networking, and more jamming!

The next day, passenger jammers will wave goodbye to their new Chicago friends and get back on the train to finish up their games while returning to their origin cities!
