Bringing the Game Dev Community Together
Welcome to Develop:Brighton
Develop:Brighton is the only event in the UK that brings the entire game-making industry together - from global superstars to micro indies, to learn from each other, share ideas and experiences, network and do business in a friendly and inclusive environment.
A huge thank you to everyone who attended this year's Develop - with over 5,500 attendees, it was our biggest event ever!
Our next Develop:Brighton will be taking place between 14 - 16 July 2026. Sign up to our newsletter to be the first to know our exciting plans...
Conference Programme
The Develop:Brighton 2025 conference had something for everyone - 13 tracks covering every discipline of game making, including the new Performance track plus free Roundtables and Indie BootCamp. Our main focus is practical take-away and vocational content giving you the chance to “skill-up” and do what you do even better.
