After exceeding 8,000 attendees... <a href="https://es.ara.cat/media/saga-evento-reivindica-catalan-mundo-videojuegos-apuesta-talento-local-publico-familiar_1_5215957.html" target="_blank">last year</a>The event returns to La Farga in L'Hospitalet, but expands its reach to occupy the entire 8,000 square meters of the exhibition space, aiming to offer a wider variety of activities and accommodate a larger audience. During the three days of SAGA, there will be nearly seventy exhibitors, including studios, training centers, associations, and clubs. New activities have been added, and some exhibitors have increased their space compared to previous editions. SAGA 2025 returned today, Friday, with tickets sold out. It is geared towards a more professional audience and, above all, students, as the event also expands its educational offerings and features informative talks about video games. Over the weekend, the fair kicks off with official competitions and also opens its doors to a more family-oriented audience, with a diverse program full of recreational and educational activities. In short, the event aims to establish itself "as a benchmark for Catalan-speaking communities connected to video games," according to the organizers. </p>]]></description>

After bringing together more than 6,000 attendees in <a href="https://es.ara.cat/media/mundo-videojuego-clasico-reencuentra-feria-retrobarcelona_1_5031375.html" target="_blank">the latest edition</a>, the fair hopes to exceed this figure. The area used at the Farga is expanding to 6,000 m², to once again fill it with gaming points, tournaments, exhibitions, conferences, and much more. In fact, the fair is consolidating its position as an unmissable event for fans of the retro world and the Peninsula. The program is tailored to the general public as well as educational centers and families, and its objective is not only entertainment, but also promotes the dissemination of the history of video games and highlights their cultural value.</p>]]></description>
