Much more than video games

The festival is not limited to retro gaming. It embraces all of the pop culture from the 70s to 2000s: vintage toys, collectible figurines, vinyl records, comic books, manga, and cult objects are exhibited and offered for sale by specialized exhibitors. Fascinating conferences allow you to dive into the history of video games and popular culture, while notable guests come to share their expertise and anecdotes.

Contests, competitions, and concerts

The RE-PLAY Festival offers numerous contests with prizes to be won, tournaments on video game classics, and live concerts.
