6th - 8th February 2026

We expect that there may be more people interested than we have spaces in the game, so we will be adopting the UK Freeforms process to assign initial places in the game and the waitlist. This is how we ran it last year but there will be some small changes and we welcome comments on the process to: gateways-admin

To get an entry in the lottery for player spaces you must register your interest in playing Gateways:
