G2E Asia
Also known as: Global Gaming Expo Asia
G2E Asia is the Asian counterpart to G2E Las Vegas, a trade show for the land-based casino and integrated-resort industry held in Macau. It runs jointly with the co-located Asian IR Expo (shared badge access) and draws casino operators, suppliers and regulators mainly from Macau and the wider Asia-Pacific market. It remains active, though markedly smaller in scale than its Las Vegas counterpart.

History
Debuted 13-14 June 2007 at Macau Tower, following AGA/Reed Exhibitions' 2006 acquisition of a prior Asian gaming trade show; later moved to The Venetian Macao. The 2020 edition was postponed twice due to COVID-19; the 2021 edition was further postponed to August 2022, and the show resumed that August in Singapore rather than Macau, before returning to its usual Macau/Venetian Macao venue by 2023. A satellite 'G2E Asia @ Philippines' edition launched December 2019 at the Manila Marriott and most recently returned December 2025. The main show is now combined with the Asian IR Expo; the 2025 edition (7-9 May) drew 6,319 combined visitors, about 65% international.

How well established
The 2007 debut, the pandemic postponements, the 2022 Singapore edition and the current joint running with the Asian IR Expo are documented. The 2026 attendance and exhibitor numbers are the organiser's own figures rather than counted totals.
