Paris Games Week: the French video game exhibition

More commonly known as the “PGW”, it is France’s leading trade fair dedicated to video games, pop culture and related merchandise. An unmissable event on the geek culture calendar, it brings together enthusiasts, professionals and the curious every year to explore the world of gaming and digital entertainment.

A true sensory experience, the PGW combines gaming, retrogaming, esports, cosplay and music. It celebrates the richness of creative worlds and talent, showcasing both the great classics of video gaming and the technological innovations that will shape the experiences of tomorrow.

Console and PC manufacturers, publishers, studios and accessory makers come together to showcase – and offer sneak previews of – the latest releases for the end of the year, the most anticipated games of 2027, and emerging cultural trends.
