ABOUT

Since 2007, PLAY is the world's first and only festival that combines media art, discourse, and education with digital game culture. At its core is the creative use of digital games – inventing, building, crafting, modifying, programming, dancing, discussing – everything is allowed!

PLAY is the festival for game lovers, indie game developers and media artists, students, teachers and educators, academics and people from the games industry, as well as anyone who wants to play and learn with games.
