About the event
Update
The 2026 edition of the Game Developers Conference will be hosted as a live trade fair at the Moscone Convention Center between the 9th and 13th of March 2026.
Game Developers Conference – A Brief Introduction
The Game Developer's Conference (GDC) is one of the biggest and most important conferences slash expos within the gaming industry in the world. This annual event runs out of different locations, but is currently based in San Francisco at the Moscone Center. Every year GDC seems to grow bigger and attendance records reflect this clearly – the edition in 2019 scoring the highest attendance record in its entire history. That’s 29,000 international visitors. The expo itself offered solutions and products from 550 exhibitors in total. That makes the Game Developers Conference a premier platform for innovation, business, and networking.
An Industry Profile
GDC defies definitions and limits as it’s become such a monumental event with an area dedicated to just about any form of hardware, software, and solution for game development. The platforms have certainly grown to include consoles, mobile and handheld devices, tablets, online, computer games and most recently VR and AR. GDC is also the place to learn and play new releases as well as enjoy playable indie games, retro games and alternative controllers. The conference portion of the event is exceptionally elaborate with more than 800 items to enjoy from lectures to panels to discussions. The audience is varied and has come to include developers, engineers, trainees, distributors, programmers, artists, producers, game designers, audio professionals and publishers.

Our visitors for the event
Dear George,
last week when we came back after Fairs was very busy and I did not replay when it comes to our stay.
We are pretty happy with our stay, rooms were spacious and clea, service was also good.
Although we have some reamarks:
1) Parking - we were staying 7 nights and each and every time when we need to leave parking we had to ask for the new parking card. They were not able to issue a card that opens the gate every time. That was inconvience for us, and they should change it.
2) Breakfast buffet - there was good chioce however not enough vegetables. There were only tomatos and cucumber, no green mix, radishes, bell pepper, we really missed that.
Service were relly nice and supportive.
Best regards,

Dear Ben,
The fair was very successful and I really liked the hotel where I stayed with my colleague. It was perfect, right next to the subway and only 15 minutes away from the book fair.
I will use your services again for sure, thank you for making the experience so enjoyable.
Best regards,

Hi Megan,
Thanks for reaching out.
Yes indeed we were staying at the Mokinba Hotel.
The accommodation was nice and clean, friendly and helpful staff. So far I have not gotten any negative feedback from our colleagues.
Also the location next to the metro station was perfect to get to the Fiera in Milano/Rho.
Many thanks again for the help.
My best,
Aline

We had the pleasure of staying at TRYP Lisboa Oriente during a business trip. Megan helped us so much and made sure that all our partners were well taken care of. I only have positive feedback and highly recommend Go Fair.
Good Morning Megan,
I want to thank you for the hotel. It was very well located and the hotel was ok too.
I just want to know the possibility and the rates for the next bauma in the same hotel, same rooms and dates than the last bauma.
Best regards,

Hi Ben,
Everything went well and the staff liked the hotel. Yes I think we will consider it for next year. Thank you
All went good. Thanks :-)
Tom is great! He always got back to me right away with the best prices!
What Hotel Herzog lacked in room size, it more then doubled in customer service. The staff went out of their way to make sure we had a pleasant stay during the K-show. The only issue we had was the very small bathrooms, difficult to use.
Dear George,
Thank you for the service! All was great and we are really satisfied.
Kind regards,
Zofia
