More than an expo: Why AGE 2025 is the event the industry can't miss
From 12–14 August at ICC Sydney, the Australasian Gaming Expo (AGE) 2025 returns as the ultimate destination for professionals across the hospitality and venue sectors looking to strengthen, streamline, and future-proof their businesses.
AGE has long been recognised as a cornerstone event for the industry. But in 2025, it’s not just about the scale - it’s about the experience. With around 200 exhibitors, a forward-thinking seminar program, and thousands of venue professionals expected to attend, AGE offers three days of insight, inspiration, and opportunity.
Spanning two halls at ICC Sydney, the expo provides a comprehensive look at the innovations shaping hospitality today. From new payment platforms and AI-driven analytics to energy-efficient lighting, compliance software, and venue design, AGE reflects a sector that is rapidly evolving to meet the needs of modern guests and changing regulations.
At the heart of AGE is its diversity. Whether you're a general manager at a major club, a hotel owner, a compliance officer, or a frontline supervisor, there’s something here for you. The show floor is filled with tools and services aimed at improving patron experience, reducing operational costs, and boosting long-term business resilience.
One of the most valuable components of AGE 2025 is its seminar program—offered free to all registered visitors. This year’s sessions cover high-priority topics including anti-money laundering (AML) compliance, leadership in times of change, sustainable operations, and workforce challenges. Delivered by a mix of operators, consultants, regulators, and technologists, these sessions provide real-world insights grounded in industry experience.
Unlike many trade shows, AGE is designed as a fully immersive environment. Attendees can explore interactive product displays, join live demonstrations, and take part in hands-on sessions that bring new technologies to life. It’s a place where you can get answers in real time, connect with like-minded professionals, and return to your venue with a toolkit of new ideas.
Networking is another key draw. Throughout the three days, attendees will have access to networking lounges, coffee hubs, and breakout spaces that encourage connection and collaboration. Whether it’s reconnecting with industry peers, building new partnerships, or having a conversation that leads to your next big idea, AGE creates space for meaningful engagement.
And with free registration for industry professionals, attending couldn’t be easier. There’s no cost to explore the floor, join the sessions, or experience all that the event has to offer. Whether you spend a few hours or all three days, you’ll find insights, solutions, and connections that will make a lasting impact.
