About Us
Moray Game Jam 2025 is taking place from the 7th – 9th March and we are hoping to offering volunteering places to students over the weekend.
It’s that time of year again!
What is Moray Game Jam?
Started in 2014 as the UK’s most northerly Game Jam, Moray Game Jam brings together gaming enthusiasts from across the country, industry leaders and educators for 48-hours of creativity, collaboration, and fun.
Based at UHI Moray, the Jam attracts teams from around Scotland to compete over 48 hours to create a video or board game based on a specific theme. The games are then showcased at a public gaming playground attracting large numbers of families and young people who are invited to vote on their favourite board and video game.
That's not all, there will also be a series of exciting talks, led by a variety of guest speakers and industry veterans and, new for 2025, social sessions to bring teams together.
Why Volunteer?
This weekend event is a great opportunity for you to gain a great insight into gaming, meet industry experts and hear from those who either work in or have experience in creating board and video games.
All travel and refreshments expenses will be covered.
What you will be doing?
The timings we will be looking for volunteers this year will be:
Saturday 8th March, 10am – 7pm: helping with the talks/ workshops/ picking up pizzas and the quiz if required.
Sunday 9th March, 9am – 5pm: helping with the bacon rolls in the morning, gaming playground and clearing up at the end of the event.
These opportunities can be split across short volunteering sessions of 3 - 4 hours.
