Westminster Games Week: Celebrating the Future of UK Games

Westminster Games Week, running from 15th to 17th October 2024, is a dedicated celebration of the UK's thriving video games industry-a key driver of the nation's creative economy.

Throughout Westminster Games Week, industry leaders, parliamentarians, and policymakers will come together to discuss the future of this dynamic industry, addressing key opportunities and challenges. It's a unique chance to shape the future of UK games and ensure the continued success of this sector. This year will include roundtables on education, online safety and the future of the nation's fastest growing creative sector.

We will also be showcasing the best of British-made games, from Bafta-winning Sad Owl Studios' "Viewfinder" to Industry Giants attendees will get a chance to experience industry-shaping IP and technology. British-made games are more than just products; they are artistic achievements and a testament to our nation's rich creative spirit.

With a newly formed government and Parliament, there's no better time to engage in meaningful conversations about the opportunities and challenges ahead.
