Heading to San Francisco for the Game Developers Conference (GDC) next week? Join us at GitHub HQ on Tuesday, March 20 at 7 pm for our annual GDC Party!
Our friends from the Global Game Jam will be there celebrating their 10-year anniversary and showcasing a collection of games for you to play. Feel free to bring your laptops and other devices, show off your work, and meet people who love games as much as you do. We’ll supply the drinks, wifi, and Octocat stickers.
Note: GDC badges or proof of registration are required for entry. All ages welcome, but please bring a valid photo ID if you’re over 21 and would like to drink. We recommend showing up early to avoid disappointment—it wouldn’t be the first GDC party to reach capacity quickly.
Date: Tuesday, March 20
Time: 7 pm – 12 am PT
Address: 88 Colin P Kelly Jr St, San Francisco, CA 94107
