GameCity 7
October 20, 2012 - October 27, 2012
One of the most fun and friendliest game festivals in the UK: GameCity: “It’s a unique exploration of what videogames really mean to the people who play them and the people who make them too.”
From the website:
Welcome to GameCity, Europe’s biggest and best-loved videogame culture festival!
Experience a huge range of playful events in and around Nottingham from October 20th-27th 2012.
The festival is mostly free* to attend and there are loads of events suitable for all ages. It’s overflowing with fun, exciting, interesting things to do during the October half term. There’ll be a schedule of events for you to see really soon, plus lots of exciting news and surprise announcements to come over the next few months.Our plan is to look at videogames from a different perspective, and encourage everyone to do the same. After all, games aren’t just for playing. They’re for learning. And for teaching. And for inspiring. At this year’s festival, we want to achieve this in the most accessible, engaging way possible.
It’s a unique exploration of what videogames really mean to the people who play them and the people who make them too.
