Video game music concerts are nothing new.
They have been around for 30 years in Japan and 14 years in the West. But it did take a while for mainstream media to catch up:
Or not:
But anyways, I always thought the world was lacking a good resource for upcoming VGM concerts.
So I made one.
This article contains lists of all upcoming VGM concerts I could find, divided by region (Europe, North America, Japan, Rest of the World).
I will keep updating this list, but please let me know if you notice a concert missing.
I don’t know much about non-orchestral concerts, so I really need help in that area. All types of shows are welcome (cover bands, DJ gigs, solo piano, etc.), as long as their main focus is performing video game music.
Europe
All links take you to the concert’s official page. If there is no official page, it might take you to it’s Facecbook page or ticket selling page.

Japan
All information of concerts in Japan has been taken from the blog ゲーム音楽を聴こう (which means “let’s listen to game music”), so all credit goes to the incredible author of that blog.
Another good source for upcoming VGM concerts in Japan is 2083.jp It lists detailed information about the concerts, like what music is performed and where you can buy tickets. 2083 is very useful, so I included links to that site as well, for those concerts that can be found there.
For figuring out Japanese, Google Translate is your friend. You can copy-paste a link to it, and it will translate the entire site for you, while you browse it normally. Here is an example.
