400 descend on Gamecity Night to celebrate industry

Gamecity breaks record attendance with more than 2,300 participants throughout its 12 events

400 developers and execs from across the games industry descended on Gamecity: Hamburg last night to celebrate the vibrant and growing games sector in the city.
The event is designed to celebrate the Hamburg game sector as well as give attendees the chance to establish new contacts as well as meet friends and peers involved in game development.

Gamecity events include four ‘well received’ ‘Gamecity Treff’ gatherings, two recruiting tours to academic institutions in Berlin and Copenhagen, the indiepixel summit and other meet-ups and conferences such as the Hamburg Games Conference.
Overall, the 12 Gamecity events organised throughout the year have broken a new attendance record for more than 2,300 participants in total.

This culminated at the Gamecity: Hamburg party, which saw its 400 guests celebrate and network late into the evening.
“This year, Hamburg’s games industry has come of age,” said Gamecity: Hamburg MD Achim Quinke.
