MAGFest & Chipspace

[edit]

Events take place all around the world that focus around the celebration and recognition of chiptune music. In the United States, during Super MAGFest—a yearly convention that hosts a variety of video game-related events—popular chiptune artists such as goto80 and Chipzel have previously performed on the Concert Hall mainstage. A chiptune-focused mainstage show (aptly named "Chip Rave") typically occurs on the third day of the convention within the concert hall.[1][2]


Super MAGFest also holds a continuous venue called Chipspace, a place where participants in the chiptune community go on-stage and perform their music through an open mic system.[3] Originally started by Chiptunes=WIN founder Brandon L. Hood and maintained by geekbeatradio, Chipspace has evolved over the course of MAGFest's lifespan to bring chiptune fans closer together.[4] Among these daily performances are showcases, which curated by chiptune netlabels such as Chiptunes=WIN, geekbeatradio, and more.[5]
