Announcement – 02/09/20

• ESA Winter 2021 will be held between 12-21 February at the Quality Hotel View
• It will be a live event with an attendee cap of 200
• The event will be raising money for Alzheimerfonden
• Game Submissions will open on December 6th

Today we are announcing ESA Winter 2021 dates, and that it will be a live event. We are committing to go ahead unless the Swedish regulations are changed to prohibit smaller events. As of October events will be permitted to run with up to 500 attendees, and we will be capping ESA Winter 2021 at 200 attendees.

In 2021 ESA Winter will be in aid of Alzheimerfonden and ESA Summer will be raising money for Save the Children. 

A fully flexible cancellation policy will be introduced for this event for those that change their minds or need to cancel up until 7 days before the event. 

The world is still not what it was a year ago. ESA is following the recommendations set by the Swedish Public Health Authority and working with Nordic Choice Hotels to uphold their Safe Stay Guidelines.

Game Submissions will open on December 6th. Hope you’ve got them ready!

Event update – 05/08/20

• The ESA Summer live event is being cancelled.

ESA is announcing the cancellation of the rescheduled ESA Summer 2020 (October) event.

We have been monitoring the situation with COVID-19 closely and come to the conclusion that it will not be possible to hold a live event as planned. We will not be replacing the October event with an online event and will take this time to prepare for the next main event in 2021. 

We’re saddened about not being able to hold ESA Summer this year, however we are thankful for all of the support we’ve received from our community during ESA Together, ESA Corona Relief and ESA Summer Online! 

Looking forward to seeing you all again next year and will keep you updated with dates for the 2021 Winter and Summer events.
