About

A professional game development and interactive media conference for New Zealand and Australian audiences.

The NZGDC is a three-day event where everyone is welcome and where we share, create, discover, and connect.

The conference fosters a dynamic ecosystem of collaboration, innovation, and growth, uniting game developers, VFX artists, and animators under one roof. Together, we are inspiring ground-breaking projects and ideas that will shape our futures.

This year, we celebrate the theme ‘Growing our Roots’. It acknowledges that our industries are significant players in the local and global markets and are continuing to grow at an extraordinary rate. It also recognises that at the heart of the industry are its people, and that our shared experiences will help us grow and thrive together.
