While Ludum Dare is typically an online event (where we make games in the comfort of our own homes) many people like to organise real-world gatherings.
Events have limited space, so if you are interested in attending a venue, then contact the organiser ASAP!

Simple, yet important question for those in Europe : what time (GMT or, whichever reference) will it start and end ?
It is always 9:00 pm EST. And there is a 1 hour submission hour at the end.
Thanks !

Hey it’s not actually an event but I’m in Montreal and I’d be happy to invite another team over. Let me know here if you’re around !

Hi there,
First of all, I wish I could enter this LD, but unfortunately, I won’t as I am opening my coffee shop business right before the next event.
I am a former contestant and I know how important coffee is. So, even if this isn’t a gathering per se, all contestants in Montpellier (France) are welcome at my shop, and will be offered free coffee during the event. I will be opened from 7am until 7pm (sorry, can’t stay open 24/7 unfortunately) on all 3 days, wifi will be open, you just have to come with your laptop and your ideas !
You can contact me for more details about the venue at guillaume.lecoz@gmail.com !
Good luck everyone !
