The Geekiest Things You Can Do in Austria

Gaming is a geek’s favourite pastime. Taking place annually in the soap factory in the quaint city of Graz, the Button Festival of Gaming Culture brings together gaming fans from all over the country to exchange ideas and discuss the future of the ‘sport’. The organisers state that: ‘Gaming is creative, it’s social, it can be comfortable, but also highly competitive. It offers opportunities to dive into fascinating worlds that are only limited by the imagination of game developers’. Those interested should check out their website for details of dates.

Taking place inside Vienna’s city hall, Game City is a free event that promises to be a heaven for gaming fans. With over 100 exhibitors and thousands of attendees, it is one of the most successful gaming festivals in Vienna. Expect interesting workshops, fascinating lectures and insights into the future of gaming.

This event, held annually in Austria’s capital, is all about computer graphics and animation, bringing together fans and specialists in the field, who are there to present talks and workshops. There are also some after-show parties where you can get to know like-minded geeks and discuss the future of animation.
