Resurrection of the Insomnia Gaming Festival cancelled due to lack of industry support
The Insomnia Gaming Festival, scheduled for April 2026, has been cancelled due to a lack of investment and sponsorship from major tech and hardware brands. Organizers cited reduced industry support for live events as the primary reason, despite strong consumer ticket sales. All ticket holders will receive refunds, and there are currently no plans for the event's return.
