Revision (demoparty) explained

Revision is a demoparty which takes place on Easter in Saarbrücken, Germany. It is the successor of the Breakpoint party series, and retains many of the organizing staff.^[1] The event was established in 2011, after Breakpoint had announced its end in 2010.

The party hosts around 800 people from around the world each year.^{[2] [3]} It is currently the largest pure-demoscene event in the world.^{[4] [5]} Since 2022, it has encouraged "satellite events" to further participate in the event remotely from around the world.^[6]
