Ho Ho Ho, #XmasJKL is here again!

XmasJKL is international, relaxed and one of the most anticipated pre-xmas season seminars where business is conducted with your neckties on your forehead and a red elf hat on your head. XmasJKL is made by Peliosuuskunta Expa / IGDA Finland Jyväskylä Hub.

XmasJKL is being held on Friday 18th of November @ Jyväskylä University's Ruusupuisto (Seminaarinkatu 10.)

Attendees can enjoy the musings of international and venerable game industry authors, participate in game testing and pitching while business is conducted in the Business Lounge. Once the official program is done with, neckties will find their way up to people's foreheads and everyone from CEO to intern can share the tables together and enjoy good food, drinks and entertainment as their laborious and productive working year comes to an end.
