Ludopolis
Ludopolis is a festival held in Lisbon, Portugal, in June. It is organized by Associação Ludopolis (a local non-profit organization). The first edition took place in Jardim Botânico Tropical (near Belém Palace) in 2012 and was visited by 7000 visitors, especially families.[1] More than 1000 games and toys for all ages occupied 3 hectares of the gardens and indoor areas.
The Festival is part of the well-known Festas de Lisboa which also occurs during June.[2] Ludopolis is divided into 5 main areas called "Aldeias" (villages). A board games village, a traditional village, a multimedia village, a kids village, and a building village compose the principal areas. Also, some workshops and cultural actions take place during the event.[1]
A big part of the festival is the Ludopolis International Boardgame Design Contest. The first edition had 78 valid entries from 10 countries.[3] The second edition received 144 games from 11 countries.[4] The second edition occurred over the last two weekends of June 2013.[1]
