Ringön, a historically significant part of Gothenburg's industrial heritage, remains largely industrial but has evolved into a vibrant, creative neighborhood. This area features a mix of breweries, techno clubs, and Caribbean-like conference venues. Located by the water and a short walk from central Gothenburg, Ringön blends industrial charm with modern creativity — and now, a gaming festival!
At GGX, we strive to create a space where everyone feels welcome and included. GGX is not just a gaming event but a platform to promote equality within the gaming industry and society. From the very beginning, we created our own Code of Conduct to ensure we live by our values. Equality is not just our goal; it is integral to the entire process of creating an event like this. We hope that we can continue and let this work grow.

How do I get to the event?
Our main hub is called Monument
(Stålverksgatan 6). The closest tram station is “Frihamnen” where tram 5, 6 and 10 goes. From there you take approximately 15 min walk to Monument.
