The London Games Festival returns
This year's London Games Festival will begin on October 25, with events planned to take place across the city over the course of a week.
Last year's festival drew over 100,000 attendees to more than 50 staged events, intended as a cultural and business celebration of videogames.
"Last year's London Games Festival was a huge success and we were thrilled with the feedback from many of those who attended and the publishers who took part," commented Keith Ramsdale, chairman of LGF.
"The Trafalgar Square event looked fantastic and it was great to see so many families come down and enjoy it.
"We've got plenty in store for 2008 and a whole host of major partners lined up with full support from the industry. We're really looking forward to bringing the gaming industry to life in the capital again."
As part of the festival, GamesIndustry.biz is to host the GamesIndustry.biz Career Fair 2008 over October 28-29.
"It is great to be hosting the event's third career fair," said Richard Sturgess, GamesIndustry.biz's trade advertising manager.
"This is a great opportunity for publishers, studios, games developers, training companies and universities to speak with professionals and graduates who are interested in pursuing careers in games development."
