GAT Events 2026 agenda strengthens its proposal in five key LATAM markets
Summary
GAT Events organisers have confirmed a strengthened 2026 programme across key Latin American markets after a highly successful GAT Expo CDMX 2025. The organisation says Mexico is consolidating as a strategic gateway for international investment in gaming, with the market projected to reach USD 970 million in 2026 amid ongoing regulatory reform.
The 2026 roadmap includes events in Cartagena, Mexico City (CDMX), São Paulo (Brazil), Bogotá, San Juan (Puerto Rico) and Santo Domingo, targeting operators, suppliers, investors and regulators across the region.
