To give you the power to easily discover upcoming game industry events calendar that includes conferences, conventions, festivals and many other types of events, we post a consolidated list here on Events for Gamers each month.
October is the final strong month of the year for events before the holidays begin to slow things down. We’re still seeing a strong mix of Onsite vs Online vs Hybrid events. This won’t change until 2023 as we begin to see a strong pickup in Hybrid events, as well as the continued return of Onsite events. This month also matches the same number of events as in September, a strong showing!
