Grim Fandango Anniversary Event Being Held At E3 Live Show
Journalist and E3 Coliseum head Geoff Keighley has announced a Grim Fandango anniversary event to take place in L.A. this June.
The celebration of the game's 20th anniversary includes live music, a live read from the game script with the original cast, creator and recent GDC lifetime achievement award recipient Tim Schafer, and more. The event will be broadcast live from the E3 Coliseum, the on-stage and backstage E3 show focusing on panels and interviews.

Our Take
Grim Fandango has been a cult-classic for two decades now, so I imagine there's a lot of pent up desire to really outwardly celebrate the things that game did to define what narrative adventures would look like for the next twenty years.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
