This is a calendar of upcoming pervasive games around the world - both individual games, and larger, organised events. If you're planning to run a game in your area, in whatever context, you're welcome to add it to the list with a date, time and location. (If you want some advice for running your own gaming event, we've got a [[Sandpit howto]] and a [[smaller event howto]].)

* '''Heist''' in Hackney, London
 
:There's no one around and the warehouse looks deserted. Thirty minutes to get in and out. You slip the hacksaw inside your jacket, give a quick nod to the rest of your crew, and boost yourself into the entrance.
 
:But it's not deserted. And that's where things start to come unstuck..
 
:Heist is an intense game for twelve people working together. Armed with a map, a radio, and a box of tools, your job will be to plan and execute a warehouse burglary. You'll need to find an entrance, avoid the guards, slip past the motion sensors and pick the locks. Or, if that's your plan, you can take out the guards, sabotage the sensors and hacksaw the locks. But whatever you do, do it carefully. You only get one chance at this.
