From Friday May 29th to Sunday May 31st, the Web We Want Festival is back at London’s Southbank Centre. A partnership between the Web Foundation and the Southbank Centre, the Web We Want Festival is a celebration of all that’s great about the Web, and a chance to debate and shape its future alongside some of the world’s greatest minds. There will be digital artworks, great music, controversial talks and debates…and the chance to play some vintage video games!

Highlights include:
