Friday 11th until Sunday 13th September 2009 @ Watershed and other venues, Bristol

There is a festival where you hunt moose with your mobile phone and run away from zombies, where you treasure hunt and throw paint over strangers, where the city becomes a giant playground for the weekend and the consoles and computers are left behind; that festival is Igfest: Bristol’s international celebration of street games, social play and mucking about. It’s back, and they want to play with you. There are dozens of games from the best international artists and street games designers to choose from and best of all, it’s entirely free!

Some Igfest games will test your stamina, others will challenge your wits. Some will have rich themes and narratives whilst others just ask you to chuck paint. Some games last hours and others take just a few minutes. Some are high tech and some use no tech. Every single one, however, is pure, unabashed fun!!!
