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.)
If you want to keep up to date, there's an RSS feed of this page's updates. There's also an archive of past events, if you want to see what you've missed.
June 2009
Saturday 20th
- Cryptozoo Chase in London, England
- A new group of London cryptozoologists are planning on "exploring the various species and how they run, moving on to a group chase and hopefully finding some new cryptids in the process", in Jubilee Gardens from 2pm to 4pm.

Wednesday 24th
- Iglympics in Bristol, England
- The interesting games lab celebrates sports as part of the Watershed's Let the Games Begin season. We are holding a mini Olympics of street games, interesting sports and mucking about.
- Hosted by the Watershed, June's iglab will bring you some of the best street games and pervasive games to have been developed around the the theme of sports. Heading the Line up will be a mini tournament of Korean Lazer Ball. Like some kind of sport from a sci fi future, Korean Lazer Ball pits two teams of lazer gladiators against each other leaving them to shine bounce and dodge their way to the top of the league. We will invite the current world champion teams to defend their title against all-comers. More games in the iglympia will be announced closer to the date.
- Sandpit #13: Playtesting, Playtesting in London, England
- The Sandpit is on the Clore Ballroom at the Royal Festival Hall. The event takes place in the evening, and is free. Games are due to include The Postman, The Interpreter, The Following, Parse the Parcel, Playmakers, The Emergent Game and Mr Smith.

July 2009
Friday 31st July - Sunday 2nd August
- Hide&Seek Weekender in London, England
- A weekend-long Sandpit event in and around the Southbank area. Games will be scheduled from those that have already been playtested and proven at earlier Sandpit events.
- If you want your game to feature in the weekend's play, you'll need to have run it at an earlier Sandpit (or other pervasive gaming) event. Contact hello@hideandseekfest.co.uk to discuss possible games.
