Industry trade event MGS Entertainment Show, originally known as Macao Gaming Show, will return with a live in-person show for the first time in four years with a two-day expo planned for 14 and 15 November with a one-day summit on 14 November.
Running under the theme “The Asian Pioneer Returns”, MGS Entertainment Show will also move to a new home in 2023 at the recently opened Galaxy International Convention Centre (GICC) at Galaxy Macau.
According to event organizer, the Macau Gaming Equipment Manufacturers Association (MGEMA), MGS will cover a total area of around 4,000 square meters and is expected to welcome 80 exhibitors and 5,000 professional visitors from locally and abroad.
Also returning in 2023 is MGS Summit, bringing together leading voices in the Macau and Asian gaming industries.
While the MGS Entertainment Show expo has not been held since November 2019 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, MGS Summit did run in 2021 and 2022 as an online-only event but will return as a full in-person gathering in 2023.
With the return of MGS and several other Asian gaming trade shows as in person events through 2022 and 2023, all Asian gaming trade shows have now returned to live in-person formats, signalling the conclusive end to pandemic-affected online and hybrid trade shows.
MGEMA said this year’s show “strives to explore innovative solutions for Macau’s entertainment, technology and tourism industries so as to better contribute to Macau’s economic recovery and enrich the content of this World Centre of Tourism and Leisure.”
