Wellington: 2026

Join us this July 24th - 26th in Te Whanganui a Tara!

Thanks for jamming with us 🥝

Join us for a weekend of game making, a fun challenge for both first-time and experienced game developers.

There’s plenty of room to spread out plenty of computer spaces upstairs and comfy desks and couches, and a kitchen. BYO laptop or computer. Wifi access will be provided.

Registration is FREE, but you must register before you can jam with us. Please make sure you’ve read the small print and the Kiwijam Code of Conduct before signing up too.
