Get ready, 'Scapers! RuneFest is back, and this year, Steamforged Games will be right there in the heart of it, helping celebrate all things Gielinor!
RuneFest 2025
For the uninitiated, RuneFest is the ultimate real-world gathering of RuneScape fans — this year's sold out RuneFest is taking place on March 1st and 2nd in Birmingham, and it's set to be MASSIVE.
Attendees can meet with JMods and content creators at the show, hang out with other players, and experience a huge range of live entertainment, parties, competitions, the Golden Gnomes awards, LAN zones, goodie bags... you get it. There's a lot going on!
We’ll have a dedicated gaming zone where you can check out Runescape Kingdoms: Shadow of Elvarg for yourself. Our stall will have guided demos, and some open gaming space too, so you can borrow a copy of the board game or the roleplaying game (RPG) and run your own sessions.
You can find out more about RuneFest here, including how to pick up resale tickets if you haven't got one yet!
