Who is Games Week for?

Games Week is for everyone!

Our Industry Program is a curated list of events for games industry professionals (developers, programmers, artists, composers, managers and creatives who make games). This includes events focused on showcasing, professional and career development, networking and skill building. Check out the Industry page to see which events might suit you.

Our Public Program is a collection of events ideal for general audiences, game enthusiasts, and families.
