Come Out & Play 2009: Call for Submissions

Come Out & Play 2009: Call for Submissions

We're very excited to announce that the 2009 Come Out & Play Festival, now in it's fourth year, will be running the weekend of June 12-14 in New York City. This year's festival is being graciously hosted by The Tank.

Come Out & Play is a three-day festival of street games. The festival seeks to provide a forum for new types of public games and play. We want to bring together a public eager to rediscover the world around them through play, with designers interested in producing innovative new games and experiences. Oh yeah, and we want to have city-size fun.

Right now we're accepting applications for games. We like to feature everything from the low-tech to the high-tech. We're primarily interested in fun, innovative games that make interesting use of the city.

The festival spreads out across New York City, but will be based primarily around Times Square. This area is rife with spaces where great games could run–from Grand Central to Bryant Park to the West Side Piers–just waiting for the right game designer to put them to use.
