ABOUT THE ARTIST

The Queensland Games Festival returns to the Brisbane Powerhouse for its 11th year!

The festival is a community celebration of Queensland made games and a chance to discover the rich creativity of our local game-making industry. With some of the world’s most played games coming out of Brisbane and southeast Queensland, the local game-making industry is an important part of the community. This one-day event will allow you to get involved with hands-on workshops, play locally made games, chat with developers, and discover more about the folks who are leading this important creative industry.
