The creator of a game will always be the most passionate about their game so take the opportunity to invite them (or a select few creators if you can’t decide) to showcase their game(s) and gain some new fans.

We can set up an area for you or your exhibitors to go through a Q&A with the fans and can offer this in a separate area to the rest of the event, just to make sure that there isn’t lots of noise from elsewhere. The Lighthouse Theatre is perfect for Q&A’s sessions and can seat up to 550 gamers. The theatre is also perfect for product launches, exhibitions, team-building and religious conferences.
