From 4 to 7 June, Vectorama 2026 took place in Oulu (Finland), an online gaming event aimed at people of all ages. The Finnish Amiga Users Group was also in attendance, organising an Amiga stand and several gaming competitions at the event. They report:
"Finnish Amiga Users Group participated in Vectorama 2026 gaming event in Oulu, Finland, by arranging an Amiga stand and several games competitions. There were a high score competition in IK+, a time attack competition in Stunt Car Racer, and multiplayer tournaments in Lotus 2 and Worms DC.

The largest Amiga stand ever at the event featured six A1200 setups (with Blizzard 1230 accelerators and PiStorm32-lite), A500 with Gotek, THEA500 Mini, and three MorphOS setups for gaming, entering scores, and displaying a live leaderboard with other information. The user group also hosted old computers from The Finnish Museum of Games, including Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum +2, Toshiba HX-10 64K MSX, Mattel IntelliVision, and Nintendo Entertainment System. The event was successful and there wasn't a moment without anyone playing on Amigas.
