Game Developers Session (GDS Prague) returns for its 24th edition on December 11–12, 2026, at the Prague Congress Centre. Billed as Central Europe's longest-running game development festival, GDS blends a professional industry conference with an educational, public-facing event, bringing together established studios, indie developers, students, and curious gamers under one roof. The event is jointly organised by Eventia s.r.o. and Active Radio a.s., with backing from Prague City Hall, Creative Prague, and other government and cultural partners, and takes place in a striking congress venue overlooking the city skyline.

Across two days, GDS runs multiple parallel stages of talks covering everything from game design and technical development to industry business trends, alongside workshops, training sessions, and an Indie Expo where visitors can try dozens of unreleased games firsthand. Past editions have featured 100+ international speakers, more than 90 unpublished indie titles on the show floor, and around 20 exhibitors, drawing attendees not just from the Czech Republic but from countries across Europe, Africa, and beyond. Whether you're a working developer looking to network or a student exploring the industry, GDS 2026 aims to open the doors of game development to everyone in the room.

Organiser: Jointly organised by Eventia s.r.o. and Active Radio a.s., with support from Prague City Hall and Creative Prague
