BostonFIG is back for 2024!

 

This year, we’ve got two exciting events planned:

THIS SPRING

BostonFIG Online Expo

BostonFIG Online Expo combines a fun, virtual exhibition and show floor experience with our engaging Talks & Learns content series.

Join us for two full days of learning, connecting, and having fun inside our custom virtual world.

THIS FALL

Boston Festival of Indie Games

After five (long) years, we’re gearing up to be back in person to celebrate independent games! This year’s Festival will feature fun activities, exciting programming, and, of course, tons of indie tabletop and video games to check out. We can’t wait to see you all again.   

More details, including dates and registration, coming soon!

Volunteer

We are a 501c3 nonprofit organization, run by a volunteer team of people who truly love supporting independent game creation. We’ve been in operation for a decade, furthering our mission to foster the next generation of game creators. We are deeply committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion as an essential part of this mission.

During the pandemic, we have struggled to maintain the momentum of our programs, which were previously in-person events. We need the support of the community in order to bring back our in-person programs in 2023. All of our funding goes towards making those programs a reality– not even our Executive Director is paid for this work. You can show your support by donating, buying tickets and merch, sponsoring, or volunteering!
