The layout

Every game visible by design

There are no headline booths and no back corners. The Pre-Show floor is designed so every game gets the same opportunity: equal stations running the length of the venue, clear sightlines, and room for media and creators to stop, play and talk.

It's built for the conversations that turn into coverage.
