The Pyrenees Game Festival organizers in La Seu d'Urgell expect to host 14,000 visitors during its tenth anniversary edition, running from March 9 to April 27.

The festival has significantly increased its scope, doubling the number of championships and venues. For the first time, the event will expand to Oliana and include sessions for the elderly at the Llar de Sant Josep. The schedule features over twenty locations across the city offering role-playing games and gastronomic experiences.

"We are doubling the number of championships and night venues, increasing the gaming spaces and buildings where people can play."
