Bacta welcomes EAG Expo back as gaming and amusement industry eyes bounce back
Bacta has welcomed the return of the physical Entertainment, Attractions & Gaming International (EAG) Expo for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic began.
With more than 200 exhibitors, 5,000 buyers and £20m expected spend, the EAG Expo is also set to be the first UK-based, international event for the amusements industry this year. The event is taking place from today (1st March) to Thursday 3rd March at the ExCel exhibition centre in London.
The EAG Expo comes at a pivotal time for the gaming and amusements industry and follows a decision to postpone the event, which was originally scheduled for January.
But due to the long break, excitement and buzz has gathered around the EAG Expo and bacta will have its own lounge at the ExCel centre.
Bacta is proudly supporting the event with a significant investment with aim of counter-acting some of the negative economic impact created by the pandemic.
Bacta and the organisers of the event are closely monitoring the Covid-19 situation and using the government’s latest guidance.
Bacta CEO John White said: “We are hugely excited that EAG is returning in its physical form and hope that by getting back in person we can build back even stronger as an industry. EAG is extremely important to us and many of our members and we are proud to be supporting the event.
“All bacta divisions, representing seaside amusements, high street gaming centres, suppliers to pub and clubs, as well as manufacturers and distributors, agreed unanimously in 2021 that we need to support EAG, which is a significant bacta asset.
“After endless hours of video calls over the past two years, we are also welcoming all attendees to our bacta lounge at EAG and we hope to see both new and familiar faces in London throughout this potentially pivotal three days.”

ECA and AGEM applaud creation of Association Assembly at ICE Barcelona
The news that January’s ICE Barcelona will include a major new feature dedicated to global gaming’s most influential trade associations has been welcomed by organisations in Europe and abroad.
Making full use of the additional space at the Gran Via Fira de Barcelona, the first ICE Association Assembly has been created to enable trade bodies to promote their values and create new opportunities for the gaming community across every sector and geography, including both the Brussels-based European Casino Association (ECA) and the Association of Gaming Equipment Manufacturers (AGEM), the global trade association for gaming equipment suppliers with its primary headquarters in Las Vegas.
Erwin Van Lambaart, Chair of the ECA confirmed: “Our members are already planning their week in Barcelona and they will be at this historic edition of ICE in great numbers. ICE is a pivotal event for the global gaming community and having a show floor feature which will enable us to engage directly with all sectors is a unique opportunity.
“Traditionally, our association’s involvement at ICE and its Conference program has primarily centred around networking and product development orientation—connecting with our members, regulators, suppliers, and fellow trade bodies. However, ICE 2025 marks a significant milestone. For the first time, the ECA will have the chance to fully interface with the global industry supply chain in its entirety. We are looking forward to this unique opportunity to articulate our vision for the future to a diverse and comprehensive audience, where innovation, responsibility and significant partnerships for guest and customer centricity will have centre stage.”
Daron Dorsey, CEO of AGEM added: “We represent the interests of our gaming suppliers whose well-known brands are global in reach, so to be given the opportunity to explain our agenda and engage with what is a truly international audience of association colleagues on the ICE show floor is invaluable.”
January’s editions of ICE and iGB Affiliate will occupy 120,000sqm of space compared to the 100,00sqm at ICE 2024. In a major endorsement of the opportunities offered by the relocation to Barcelona 72% of the 25 biggest exhibitors will have an increased stand presence at ICE 2025.
