Gamescom, the world's largest games event, is coming to Latin America with a new event. From June 26th to 30th, 2024, Gamescom latam will take place in São Paulo, Brazil, offering a unique opportunity for gaming fans and the games industry from Brazil, across Latin America and beyond. In order to become the largest games festival in Latin America, Gamescom latam is emerging from the BIG Festival, which was already visited by 2023 people in 50.000. Gamescom in Cologne in 2023 brought together over 320.000 visitors and over 1.200 exhibitors from all over the world.
The new event will be named after Latin America Gamescom latam and complements the family of existing Gamescom formats – the original in Germany and the one taking place in Singapore Gamescom Asia.
The BIG Festival was already the most important hub for the games industry in the region, welcoming more than 2023 professionals in its B1.700B sector in 2. With the new partners, Gamescom latam will now become one of the world's largest business and launch platforms in the industry.
Association of industry leaders
The partnership is the result of the merger of heavyweights from the games and entertainment world: Koelnmesse, Game, BIG Festival and Omelete Company.
“Thanks to our subsidiary in São Paulo, we are very familiar with the strengths of São Paulo as a trade fair, media and communications location, especially in the area of computer and video games,” explains trade fair boss Gerald Böse, explaining Koelnmesse’s long-standing investment in Brazil and South America. “With gamescom latam, the portfolio of our activities is perfectly supplemented in terms of both content and geography with an extremely successful format and the globally radiating gamescom brand.”
“We are very pleased to be bringing gamescom to Brazil together with our partners. Latin America and especially Brazil are exciting growth markets: The community and the games industry are growing rapidly and gamescom latam should become a new home for both of them as well as many visitors from all over the world. Gamescom 2023 in Germany clearly showed this: the international games industry needs events. We are pleased that we have a unique and strong set of new partners for gamescom latam,” says Felix Falk, Managing Director of game – Association of the German Games Industry.
“The creation of gamescom latam shows the recognition of Brazil and Latin America as a central territory by the largest game producers in the world. It is also an important rapprochement between two events that have had the same character: both gamescom and BIG Festival celebrate the world of games and gaming communities by presenting fans with the latest releases, the best games and much more. For this reason, BIG Festival will continue to be one of the sections of gamescom latam will continue to exist and present the best indie games from around the world, as we have done since 2012, but now on a platform with much greater visibility," says Gustavo Steinberg, CEO of BIG Festival and now of gamescom latam.
“Omelete Company's leadership and strategic commitment will be consolidated from gamescom latam in São Paulo to build audiences and create epic experiences for the games market. We create connections and strategic plans for brands that want to enter the world of gaming and are now consolidating the market with the largest event in Latin America,” says Pierre Mantovani, CEO of Omelete Company.
gamescom latam is strategically supported by the state government and the city of São Paulo, who value the importance of games in today's culture and economy.
Gamescom latam will take place from June 26th to 30th, 2024 at the Expo São Paulo site.
