An all-day event dedicated to celebrating the most interesting, the most moving and the most unconventional games from Scotland and around the world.
The Glasgow Independent Games Festival is a celebration of indie games. We pride ourselves in showing the most interesting, the most moving and the most unconventional games from Scotland and around the world.
Expect lots of games to play – unreleased and upcoming titles from the most talented developers. And there’s lots more too, we’ll have interviews, talks, music and maybe even some poetry!
GIGF has been loved by all since 2024. Each year brings a bigger and better event. 2026 is no exception!
The Glasgow Independent Games Festival is an all day event. We’ll have a bumper set of indie games for you to play, from some of the most talented developers around.
During the day we have a series of developer talks, workshops and discussions, allowing you to peek inside the sausage machine and even argue with the gristle. In the evening there will be live entertainment, music, poetry and an award ceremony for our audience-voted Best in Show.
