Mobile Games Awards 2018: Grab your ticket before they run out!

There are only a limited number of tickets remaining for the first ever Mobile Games Awards taking place on January 23rd at the prestigious BAFTA 195 Piccadilly, London (just after Pocket Gamer Connects London).

The Mobile Games Awards will recognise the sector’s key players over the last year, from the developers making great games to the publishers, tool makers and service providers that are helping to build a platform for success.

More than 200 industry professionals have registered for the ceremony already - meaning we’ve nearly sold out!

There’s still time to grab your ticket though. You can register for the Mobile Games Awards here.
