Organizing video game and esport events
18 pros
Workshops for young and adults, games jams, video game showcases, esports tournaments or online events hosted by influencers on Twitch, and more. A wide range of workshops and events can be organized to reach new audiences and showcase French video game talents!
Professional associations
In France, the video game and esport sectors are well structured. Professional associations represent this ecosystem. They can help you organize your events.
Workshops and playful events
Alongside the world-renowned studios, video games inspire artists and irrigate the various fields of artistic creation. Independent artists and collectives seize upon it and divert it to reach out to all audiences, organizing original workshops and playful events: workshops for young people and adults, games jams (i.e. hackathons with video games as their main theme), conferences, debates, shows and more.
Esport
Esport is a new type of programming aimed at young people, enabling us to reach new audiences. This type of offer also makes it possible to tackle other cultural issues beyond the world of esport: cultural and linguistic impacts, awareness of good digital practices, etc.
