GeekFest West was a three-day extravaganza that took over Everett, WA, in July 2024. Spanning seven locations across the city, it was a playground for enthusiasts of all things geek. Attendees immersed themselves in an array of activities: exploring countless exhibitor booths and cosplay, enjoying outdoor live music, and catching exclusive after-dark comedy and film events featuring headliner Shayne Smith. Whether you were a dedicated gamer, sci-fi aficionado, fantasy devotee, or anime fan, GeekFest West delivered an unforgettable adventure of geek culture. Highlights included the bustling Expo Vendor Hall with over 60 vendors, a lively Street Fair that offered geek-inspired fare and live performances, gaming tournaments, card events, and even a Film Festival & Film Challenge presented by 48 Hour Films. It was a weekend where passion and creativity thrived. We are looking forward to what GeekFest West has in store for us in the coming years.

SEATTLE INDIES

We were thrilled to see Seattle Indies at GeekFest West! Seattle Indies is a nonprofit organization that brings together game developers across the Puget Sound area. They host a wide range of events where people can make games, get feedback, connect with others, and show off their projects. We love how Seattle Indies’ events are for everyone, whether you're a pro game developer or just curious about making games. Seattle Indies creates friendly spaces where developers can hang out, support each other, chat about game development, and share their fantastic creations with everyone. We experienced this incredible atmosphere of positive mutual support among developers at the Seattle Indies booth at GeekFest West this year.
