“We were completely overwhelmed by the amount of people who visited The Video Game Market at Doncaster Dome in March. It was our biggest event in Doncaster to date.

“The popularity of video games continues to go from strength to strength and it was great to hear that people travelled from far and wider to Doncaster for the event.

“As always there will be a treasure chest of classic games for passionate gamers and collectors.”

From Gameboy to Playstation, a vast selection of consoles from decades gone by will be on offer, alongside thousands of rare must-have titles for home gamers who love to play into the early hours.
