Our team happened to be around last year so we visited and had a great time.

So what can you expect to find if you happen to wonder in?

Craftsman Corner

Like previous years, visitors can browse craftsmen booths and see their unique products. Artworks and handicrafts, toys, figures, collectables and various knickknacks will be up for grabs and haggling.

We got cool T-shirts last year!

Regional Youtube Stars

Over the three days of Games.CON, visitors will have the opportunity to socialize, paint and sing with some of the most popular Youtube stars at the Balkan Tube Fest booth.

The regional stars of the YouTube scene will stage a concert, with introductions and photo ops afterwards. You can also visit interactive workshops on important and socially responsible topics.

Cosplay

You’ll also be able to hang out and take selfies with cosplayers throughout the three days of the festival. “Cosplayers will take a stroll on the Main Stage during the Opening Ceremony which is scheduled for Friday and during which light sabers will be crossed. Main stage is reserved for cosplayers also for competitions on Saturday and for Sunday at the Valinor’s Costume Show. On the same day a panel will be held with Cosplay guests from abroad.”
