The event brought together Twitch streamers, viewers, and gaming enthusiasts from all corners of the city and beyond.

But what is a Powered by Twitch Community MeetUp I hear you ask!? Well, simply put, a "Powered by Twitch Community Meetup" is an event where fans, streamers, and other members of the Twitch community come together in person. It provides an opportunity for people who usually interact online to meet face-to-face, share experiences, and discuss various aspects of gaming, streaming, and content creation. It's a chance for the Twitch community to connect and build relationships outside of the virtual world.

The theme of the evening was very much that communities matter, and that the success of any community starts and ends with the great folks who make them up. We think its safe to say the community is alive and well based on the  sentiments and great vibes we witnessed during the night itself.

One of the highlights of the event was of course the live streaming area, where Twitch streamers showcased their talents to an eager audience - Peeking at 10,000 live viewers over on Twitch! Attendees were treated to live gameplay of the classic Track & Field played with dance mats instead of its regular two button control scheme that had the crowd in stitches!

Adding to the overall epic vibes of the evening was amazing the support of Monster Energy who provided a bevy of fantastic prizes and of course kept guests well hydrated with all the energy drink they could handle! 

As the night drew to a close, the sense of camaraderie and unity among attendees was undeniable. Friendships were forged, stories were shared, and the Powered by Twitch Manchester Community Meet-Up proved that the Twitch community is more than just pixels on a screen – it's a family.

In the end, the first-ever Powered by Twitch Manchester Community Meet-Up was a resounding success. It brought together the gaming and streaming community in a way that transcended the digital realm, leaving attendees with memories that will keep them going until the next one is announced. Speaking of which....

The Powered by Twitch Manchester Community MeetUp PART 2 is officially a go! This January, we go again for round 2, stay tuned for official date announcement! 

Until then, here's to many more meet-ups and unforgettable moments in the future!
