#DKgame LIVE: Troldspejlet and Astralis
Experience Troldspejlet live in the Queen's Hall and compete against Astralis'; women's team on the occasion of this year's big special exhibition #DKgame - Danish computer games from 1960s to 2020s.
Join us for a day in The Diamond, where we celebrate the diverse culture of computer games through a wide programme of activities for both children and adults.
Computer games are the digital age's very own medium. A form of cultural expression and an art form in itself. A multi-billion dollar industry with huge companies and a wild undergrowth of players from game designers to professional gamers.
At #DKGame LIVE, you can dive deep into the fascinating and multifaceted world of computer games with a string of activities.
Programme
Troldspejlet LIVE in the Queen's Hall
Come with Jakob Stegelmann on a colourful journey from when the computer game was TV tennis - up to today, when anything can be done in the world of games. In his very special way, Jakob Stegelmann will lead us through the colourful and wonderful history of the culture.
There is something to learn, whether you are completely green when it comes to joysticks and computer mice or you have been involved ever since Pac-Man and Commodore 64 were the wildest thing on the market - or even before.
Troldspejlet LIVE takes place in the Queen's Hall at 13:30-15:30.
