Summer Game Fest 2026 Announced For June 2026

Summer Game Fest will return in 2026 with a new location! The event is scheduled for Friday, June 5th in Los Angeles and will be held at the Dolby Theatre.

For context, the 2025 event took place at the YouTube Theater in Inglewood, California. The Dolby Theatre, which hosts the annual Oscars, opened in Hollywood in 2001. It was formerly called the Kodak Theatre.

Geoff Keighley will produce Summer Game Fest 2026, continuing his role as the show’s organizer. He also runs The Game Awards, where director Josef Fares famously criticized the Oscars a few years ago. That comment feels particularly relevant now, as Summer Game Fest is moving to the same location where the Oscars are held.

Mark your calendars! Summer Game Fest will be live-streamed on Friday, June 5, 2026, from the famous Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. Get ready for a huge showcase of upcoming video games on all platforms! Tickets for the live event will be available in Spring 2026.
