The fabulously grand and spacious Tileyard North will be the headline sponsor and host of GaMaYo #22 on 23rd May 2024. The event will return to the Wakefield venue following the success and positive feedback received from attendees in November.
But this GaMaYo #22 will be a little bit different with a one-hour session of short roundtables – before the demos start – on topics from IP to publishing with leading experts, publishers, platform-holders and studios.
As usual attendees will be able to enjoy food and drink, but this time there will be a fully accessible and expanded upstairs lounge dedicated as a quiet area.
Jamie Sefton MD of Game Republic which manages GaMaYo said “Indie developers coming to the event can expect a few changes to our GameDevDay designed to provide some extra support and opportunities for game developers coming to the event. Alongside new game demos, the roundtables will give all attendees access to our special guests and their tips and opportunities to help them on their game development journeys. They will also mean even more networking opportunities.”
GaMaYo will start at 5pm (instead of the usual 6pm) and is FREE for GaMaYo members. The event is organised by Game Republic supported by headline sponsor Tileyard North and Official Partners Red Kite Games, Barclays and Escape Technology.
Nick Keynes, Co-Founder of Tileyard North said “We are delighted to be supporting this event again in 2024 and welcoming developers to enjoy our spaces. We will also be offering some tours and a few new elements to make the most of our on-site facilities on the day. Our mission is to help creatives connect, and we could not be happier to be involved once again in this fantastic event.”
Tileyard is a globally recognised creative community and has expanded to an extraordinary new space in Wakefield, West Yorkshire – a hub to create, work and play featuring recording studios, content spaces, offices, event venues and more. When re-generation is complete, the sister site to Tileyard London is set to be the UK’s largest creative community outside of London; a mixed-use, creative and cultural cluster with state-of-the-art facilities.
Registrations are now open, and up to 20 game demo slots are available for developers. Game Republic and GaMaYo can request a demo when registering to attend. Please get in touch if you are interested in joining GaMaYo or Game Republic.
