Deadline: Application for Courage XL 2025

This is the deadline to apply for Courage XL

Get Ready for Courage XL!
The most informal and friendly Indie Showcase, happening just before GDC kicks off. Over 50 indie developers will present their work at the Great Northern in San Francisco on Sunday evening, right before GDC begins. It’s the perfect place to break the ice for a week full of networking, mingling, and partying.

Courage XL has one rule: play a game, and you might get a free drink.

Showcasers hold drink tokens that can only be earned by playing their game!

Want to showcase your game?
If you’re interested in showcasing your game, you can apply for a spot using the form below. The application deadline is January 5th. If your game passes the curation process, there is a fee of 200 euros. This fee covers the venue buyout, table rentals, event marketing costs, drink tokens (bar guarantee), and electricity for your booth.

Want to attend as a visitor?
If you’d like to attend as a visitor, you can choose from the following time slots:

19:00 – 20:00h: VIP Hour
This hour is reserved for investors, publishers, platforms, and press, giving them exclusive early access to the venue and games. Are you a VIP? Apply today for a spot. Application deadline is March 13th.

20:00 – 20:45h: 20:00h tickets – Early Bird Tickets
This slot is for game professionals who have secured a 20:00h ticket, guaranteeing entry between 20:00 and 20:45. If you arrive later, you’ll still be able to enter, but you’ll need to queue like everyone else. These tickets sell out quickly, so join the waitlist to be notified when they become available!

21:00 – 23:30h: 21:00h tickets – Regular Tickets
General admission begins at 21:00. A ticket is required, but after that, simply join the queue and get ready to meet fellow game professionals and explore their latest projects! If the venue is full, we handle a one-in one-out policy.
