Summer Games Done Quick 2024 is over. The marathon ran from June 30 through July 6, 2024, with some broadcasts appearing in the early hours of July 7 depending on your time zone. You can now watch archived runs through the official Games Done Quick YouTube channel; the official Twitch channel may also retain portions of its event archive.

How to find a specific SGDQ 2024 run
- Open the official schedule and find the game you want to watch.
- Note its category and runner. Those details are useful because YouTube uploads may use the game, category or runner in the title rather than simply saying “SGDQ 2024.”
- Search the official GDQ YouTube channel for the game title plus SGDQ 2024.
- If the result is difficult to locate, search again using the runner’s name or category, such as Any%, All Melons, Legendary or Normal RTA.
- Use the run tracker to verify that you have found the correct run.
There may not be one convenient, uninterrupted video containing the entire seven-day marathon. Individual official uploads are generally the easiest way to revisit a game, while Twitch is more useful if you want a longer continuous broadcast and its archive still contains the relevant footage.

The official tracker used America/Chicago for its times. It listed the June 30 pre-show at 11:30 a.m. Central Time, followed by the first listed run, Yoshi’s Story, at 12:23 p.m. Central Time. That was approximately 12:30 p.m. Eastern for the pre-show and 1:23 p.m. Eastern for the first run.
#1 Best Overall
These were planned schedule times, not guarantees. Runs can finish early or run long, and interviews, setup, technical issues and other live segments can shift the actual broadcast. For a historical time, use the official tracker rather than rounded times from older coverage.

SGDQ 2024 benefited Doctors Without Borders, also known as Médecins Sans Frontières. Watching an archived video does not itself make a donation. If you want to support the organization, use its official donation channels rather than an unofficial fundraiser.
The official GDQ tracker records a final total of $2,576,741.39 from 33,888 donations. This is the tracker’s recorded figure, and donation totals can be revised after a broadcast.
Independent reader supportYour contribution helps us test, update, and keep practical guides available for everyone.Why the old Twitch instructions can be confusing
Contemporary viewing guides correctly sent viewers to twitch.tv/gamesdonequick for the live marathon. That does not mean the event is still streaming now. The 2024 broadcast has ended, and Twitch video availability can change.
For current viewing, start with the official YouTube archive. If a video is missing there, try Twitch’s video archive and then search YouTube using the game title, runner, category and “SGDQ 2024.” Avoid assuming that every intermission, interview, bonus game or donation segment remains available as a separate recording.
Finding the full schedule
Use the official GDQ schedule for the event layout and the run tracker for detailed run information. An alternate schedule view is available at Horaro, but the official GDQ pages should be your primary reference.
