London Games Festival 2025 takes shape

The 10th anniversary edition of the London Games Festival is promising to be the biggest yet, with the programme of core events being revealed and applications open for game submissions.

London Games Festival 2025 runs from Wednesday 2 April to Sunday 13 April. Headlining the event line-up is New Game Plus, a new consumer games expo that will showcase upcoming games from around the world across all platforms – it will take place at the London Museum’s exhibition spaces on London Wall. The event will be open to both the public and professionals, including an industry conference alongside it.

A number of other core festival events have been locked in for 2025 as well – including the BAFTA Games Awards (Tuesday 8 April), Now Play This, the Games Finance Market, convergence conference Screen Play, plus LGF’s annual Trafalgar Square activities.

London Games Festival is supported by the Mayor of London and is delivered by Games London, an initiative from Film London, the capital’s screen industries agency, and video games trade body Ukie (The Association for UK Interactive Entertainment).

2024’s festival edition already solidified London Games Festival’s position as the UK’s biggest games event with over 100,000 people in total taking part.
