The 2026 Queensland Games Festival is on at the Brisbane Powerhouse – join us for our free public exhibition of locally made games and events on June 27th.
Presented by the Brisbane International Game Developers Association Inc. in partnerships with Brisbane Powerhouse
The Queensland Games Festival is our own unique celebration of Queensland’s vibrant game making community. Hosted at the iconic Brisbane Powerhouse, the festival is an opportunity to come and discover our rich variety of locally made games, all presented by the studios that created them. Enjoy playing games, chatting to the developers, and getting creative in our free public workshops. From digital games to board games, there is something for everyone to play from our local game makers.
Want something even more interactive? We have our Amplify Game Space for more experimental and works-in-progress games! Or if you’re interested in working in the games industry, join us in the Emerging Developers Room to chat with a game dev about life in the industry!
The Queensland Games Festival is proudly supported by the Queensland Government through Screen Queensland and financed with the assistance of Screen Australia.
