Yorkshire Games Festival is a unique festival of all things gaming, celebrating games culture, design and production with special industry guests.
This year’s festival will look slightly different to previous editions as we move our programme online for the first time, bringing gaming inspiration to you at home!
Throughout February, there’ll be gaming-related resources online for young game-makers, including videos from BAFTA Young Game Designers and activities from across the Science Museum Group. Our Northern Games Showcase has also moved online this year, celebrating game production in Yorkshire with some great games you can play at home.
Our Game Talks Online programme is now live—explore the events and book your tickets below.
