    About This Event

    "The History of Video Games" is a unique exhibition in Nicosia, Cyprus, tracing the evolution of video game consoles and personal computing across generations. Hosted at the Pallas Theatre Foyer near the Pafos Gate, the expo brings together selected exhibits from two distinguished museum collections to tell the story of gaming culture, technological development, and shared digital memories. 🕹️

    The exhibition is presented in collaboration with the Video Games Museum of Crete — the first museum in Greece dedicated to the history and culture of video games, with a collection of over 400 consoles, rare games, controllers, publications and artefacts — and the Cyprus Computer Museum, a non-profit educational organisation operating in Nicosia since 2018, focused on preserving and showcasing the heritage of personal computing and digital technology.

    Each exhibit represents a piece of a much larger story: one of creativity, entertainment, and the personal memories shared by millions of players across the world.
