Roblox Designathon!
We’re making an exciting new video game for Roblox, and we need your help to design our brand new virtual game world. Bring your imaginations!
The Southbank Centre is making an exciting new video game for Roblox, and we’re bringing the festival experience to you in our new music-making adventure!
We want your ideas to power the world you get to make music in, making the stage yours in every way.
As part of our Designathon, attendees take on an illustrated timed task. We’ll collect all the ideas you generate as part of each session and select some of your designs to build a brand new virtual festival world in Roblox.
We want your ideas to power this world, making the game yours in every way.
Helping you bring your ideas to life on the day are two expert illustrators, Tilly Bungard and Kingsley Nebechi.
Tilly Bungard is an experienced facilitator and community organiser specialising in work with young people, with a focus on arts participation with vulnerable young people.
Kingsley Nebechi is a Nigerian-British artist, illustrator and graphic designer based in London. Inspired by African art, he has worked with brands including Nike, BuzzFeed, Google and Sony and his artwork featured in Dapo Adeola’s Hey You! (Puffin, 2021).
