Paris Games Week (PGW)
France's Flagship Consumer Video Game Expo and Cultural Festival
Established in 2010 by the French video game publishers union (SELL), Paris Games Week ranks among Europe's largest consumer gaming expos, welcoming over 300,000 attendees annually.
Showcasing the French and European Gaming Industry
Created to provide France with an international consumer platform rivaling German and American showcases, Paris Games Week is timed right before the holiday retail surge. It brings together platform holders like PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo alongside French gaming powerhouse Ubisoft to offer hands-on gameplay stations across vast exhibition halls.
Global Keynotes and Esports Prestige
PGW elevated its global stature in 2015 and 2017 by hosting Sony Interactive Entertainment's major European media briefings, unveiling landmark titles such as Ghost of Tsushima. Additionally, housing high-stakes esports tournaments like the ESWC and family-oriented PGW Junior halls, it stands as a cornerstone of European gaming culture.
