Second Round of Hamburg Community Convention: Polaris Advances
The Polaris Convention 2023, taking place from 13 to 15 October in Hamburg Exhibition Halls, is set to be an exciting event for the gaming community. Organised by Hamburg Messe und Congress and the Hamburg event agency Super Crowd, the convention promises a plethora of gaming opportunities and a celebration of the local games industry's 20th anniversary.
Gamecity Hamburg, a key player in the industry, has been actively supporting the gaming sector for two decades. This year, they are presenting five new games from the Hanseatic city at the Polaris Convention. However, it's worth noting that the search results do not currently provide information about these five indie studios.
The Polaris Convention features over 200 exhibitors from the gaming world, including 60 content creators and renowned game providers. One such exhibitor is the Piet Smiet web video team, hosting their first live event at the convention.
For those with a passion for cosplay, the Polaris Convention offers a unique experience. Not only is there a Cosplay Contest, but the convention aims to set a world record with TikTok for the largest gathering of video game cosplayers.
In addition to the main event, the Polaris Convention also hosts the exhibition '40 Years of Famicon - The Origin of Passion and Legends'. This exhibition delves into the history of Nintendo's legendary game console, Famicon, and its impact on the gaming industry.
The local games industry is thriving, with around 2,500 employees active in 200 companies, as supported by Gamecity Hamburg. This organisation also funds six prototypes of digital games through initiatives like Games Lift 2023, where several teams will be funded.
One such gaming location that continues its operations is Rcadia. With the Polaris Convention providing a platform for the gaming industry to showcase their work, it's an exciting time for gamers and developers alike.
As the Polaris Convention 2023 approaches, it promises to be a celebration of gaming, creativity, and community spirit in Hamburg. Whether you're a seasoned gamer, a cosplayer, or a developer, there's something for everyone at this year's event.
