It is our pleasure to invite you to @party 2023!

This is the 13th annual @party and we’re returning to Artisan’s Asylum at its new home in Allston, MA USA. There will be three full days of scheduled programming from Friday June 16th through Sunday June 18th.

The room will have a permanently installed sound system and bigscreen comparable in size to our party systems of the past and you’re welcome to consume meals and refreshments at your computer place. You can’t sleep here though, so please make arrangements for a hotel or roomshare if you don’t intend to stay awake for three days straight.

Stay tuned for further announcements on performers, seminars, and additional program items!

Thank you, and we hope to see you at @party 2023!

– Dr.Claw and the rest of the @party Orga Team

Thank you to everyone who attended, either in-person or remote. All releases can be found at scene.org and we’re looking forward to getting back to hosting a big @party again in 2022 in the fancy new space! Until then, enjoy the releases, and be sure to contribute to other parties for the rest of the year, because there are plenty of them happening. Cheers!

Whew, it’s been a rough year, but the demoscene is still going strong. As we emerge from the ravages of COVID-19 our venue, Artisan’s Asylum, is in the process of packing up and moving across town to fancier digs. For the time being however, in light of both COVID-19 and the move, we will hold a smaller, shorter, hybrid in-person / online @party this year.

We’ll start up our Discord channels to hang out with everybody starting on the morning of Friday July 30th, remote entries will be due that night before midnight, Saturday we’ll test and capture entries as necessary, and Sunday August 1st doors will open for a small number of in-person attendees. Proof of vaccination (2 weeks after your final shot) will be required for entry. Click here to purchase tickets. Please only reserve tickets if you intend to attend the event, there will be a limited number of tickets available and remote attendance is free. The compos will take place on Sunday in the early evening, and doors will close late that night. On Monday August 2nd we will conduct a remote awards ceremony around lunch, local time.

Hopefully some of you have been working on something over the past year and are looking forward to partying with us!

We’d like to thank all participants who helped to make this online edition of @party a success. Many of you submitted some great entries, most of which can be found on pouet with YouTube captures, and any remaining files can be found on Demozoo.

Additionally, all stream videos are archived on Scenesat: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3. Thank you again, and hopefully we can get back to doing this in person next year!
