New Date! November 26-28.2021

Geposted am | 1 Comment on New Date! November 26-28.2021

We have been intensively dealing with the pandemic situation for months. We are observing the developments with concern in relation to our chosen date. Maybe moving it to June was not far enough – we were being hopeful and optimistic – but who can estimate a pandemic?

In the summer of 2020, there were still many unknowns in the equation: no high-impact second wave at the time, no highly infectious viral mutant at the time, and even the vaccination start date was more of a hope than real knowledge – we could not have estimated it better for the life of us.
Health is our most valued asset. We are aware of our responsibility towards our visitors, exhibitors, sponsors, and partners – Thus, we decided against an onsite event in June.

The Indie Game Fest lives on interactions between developers and visitors. The personal and direct interaction creates a flair that is difficult to reproduce digitally. For this reason, we have agreed with our partners as well as the event location, on another date shift to the end of November.

New schedule:

• Friday: Nov. 26.2021 – Cologne Welcome Drink <-> 6:30 – 9:00 p.m.

The Indie Game Fest team and the city of Cologne would like to welcome you and
We invite our exhibitors, partners, sponsors and invited VIPs, to this exclusive networking event.
Get to know each other and see the event location first hand. Thanks to our partner KölnBusiness, drinks are completely free for 2 hours!

 

• Saturday: Nov. 27.2021 – Exhibition at the Wasserturm Hotel 1 p.m. to 11 p.m.

 

• Sunday: Nov. 28.2021 – Networking Brunch by AdaQuest <-> 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Together with our partner Ada Quest we would like to invite you to a brunch on Sunday morning.
This brunch will give you once more the opportunity to network with our partner, exhibitors, business ticket holders and sponsors.

The entire Indie Game Fest team will use the extra time to continue working on Indie Game Fest to bring you an outstanding Event.
