Summer Game Fest 2026 Ready to be Held at Dolby Theater Hollywood on June 5
Summer Game Fest 2026 has been officially announced to take place on June 5, 2026, at Dolby Theater, Hollywood. This annual event will feature various game announcements, the latest trailers, and exclusive surprises from Geoff Keighley and his team.
For the 2026 edition, the organizers chose Dolby Theater in Hollywood as the live opening stage, scheduled for June 5, 2026. This location is not just any place: since 2002 Dolby Theater has been widely known as the home of the Oscars, so the choice of venue marks the event’s ambition to appear grand and classy.
Summer Game Fest started as a streaming event in 2020, filling the void left by E3 during the pandemic. Over time, its format evolved: in 2022 the organizers added a live media event, and in 2023 they combined a theater show like The Game Awards with a separate media preview event.
Summer Game Fest 2026 has the potential to deliver more dramatic stage moments — Geoff Keighley and his team are clearly preparing something to be enjoyed together, both from the audience seats and home screens.
Mark your calendar: June 5, 2026, will likely be filled with new trailers, major announcements, and the typical Geoff season surprises.
