Scottish Games Week has gone on 'hiatus' until 2024.
Scotland's largest B2B gaming event says it has cancelled this year's edition due to “the disruption to the gaming ecosystem and political landscape in 2024.”
However, the event will return in October 2025 “with a larger, more diverse program of events supporting the entire gaming ecosystem.”
“The disruption to the gaming ecosystem and political landscape in 2024 means that ongoing delays in funding and support have been significant,” said Brian Baglow, Founder and Director of Scottish Games Week.
“Rather than risk delivering something subpar or putting the future of the event and the organisation at risk, we will take a break in 2024. We will resume Scottish Games Week in 2025, bigger, better and more creative than ever.”
Scottish Games Week says it is “now seeking partners, sponsors and advisors for its return in 2025”.
“With over a year to plan and deliver Scottish Games Week 2025, we welcome proposals from partners of all kinds,” Baglow added.
