London Games Festival 2027

London Games Festival is a major global celebration of video games and interactive entertainment.

London Games Festival will expand a number of its core events with a move to the Business Design Centre as its central venue next year.

Public showcase New Game Plus, flagship business to business event Games Finance Market and a number of industry conferences and networking activity will be hosted at the exhibition venue in order to host more visitors from across the UK and overseas.

Other events from organiser Games London, including its Ensemble exhibition and Screen Play conference, will still take place at other venues. The BAFTA Games Awards will return to Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre. A renewed partnership with the Victoria & Albert Museum will see a fresh Friday Late focusing on video games, taking place on Friday 16 April. A host of side events from community groups and industry partners are also expected. The festival’s Official Selection will also return, providing a curated line-up of games promoted both in-person at select events and online to international audiences throughout LGF.

London Games Festival is delivered by Games London, an initiative from Film London, the capital’s screen industries agency. Games London is supported by the Mayor of London and UK Government – it is a key part of the national Games Growth Package, part of the Creative Industries Sector Plan.
