Parallels 2026

GENERAL RELEASE TICKETS SOLD OUT - STANDBY FOR FURTHER ANNOUNCEMENTS!

Parallels 2026 will feature eight creative and unique games and their creators live on stage. Join us for an evening that explores the motivations and nuances behind creative decisions, exclusive behind the scenes intel on how games were made, and most importantly an opportunity to discover a new gem.

Hosted by Ruby Innes and Mark Serrels, this year is about permanence and impermanence. What should stay and what should go? Should anything remain eternal?

PLEASE NOTE! :

When buying your ticket, you can also PREORDER very cool new Parallels t-shirts! Caps, totes and stickers will be available for purchase on the night, but t-shirts will have very limited sizing available - so make sure you preorder if you don't want to miss out! Your order will be available to pick up at the Merch Table on the night, or email us to organise postage (at an additional cost).

If you've already purchased your ticket but forgot to grab merch or a ticket to the Afterparty, you can press "Get Tickets", scroll to the bottom of the page and press "Skip to Add-Ons" to order there.

Thanks!
