Based on verified event data
- Dates 16-20 September 2027
- Venue Makuhari Messe, Chiba
- Organiser CESA
- Announced on the official site after the 2026 edition concluded
The September 2027 edition has already published its dates, so travel and meeting schedules can be fixed well ahead of the show.
Two business days precede the public days, which keeps trade conversations separate from consumer foot traffic.
Holding a September slot in the same venue each year makes year-over-year comparison of titles and platform strategy straightforward.
The venue's proximity to Tokyo makes it reachable for both domestic publishers and inbound licensing teams in a single trip.
Opportunity types
Who exhibits
- game publishers and developers
- platform and hardware makers
- middleware, engine and esports service providers
Who visits
- licensing, publishing and distribution buyers

Announced directly on the organiser's site alongside the 2026 edition, which concluded as the first five-day show in the event's history.
