Following an initial survey of interest, the Dutch industry association DGA has confirmed the ‘Durch Pavilion’ at gamescom 2026. Whilst co-exhibitors are being sought for Cologne, preparations for Indogo in Rotterdam – the industry’s most important Dutch B2B event – are in full swing.
Indigo takes place on 2 and 3 June in Rotterdam and, with over 1,000 attendees, is the most important B2B event in the games industry in the Benelux region. In addition to the numerous talks, presentations and panels, Indigo will also host the first regional edition of Game Dev Heroes Benelux 2026. It is an offshoot of the Game Dev Heroes competition, which takes place in the run-up to Develop Brighton, with the awards being presented there at the event.
In addition to Indigo, where the Dutch Games Association is on board as a partner, the DGA is also working on this year’s appearance at gamescom in Cologne. As the association announced in its newsletter, following a survey of interest, the Dutch Pavilion has been booked again for 2026 on the same terms. This means just under 300 square metres are available for companies from the Netherlands.
Further information is available from the DGA. Under certain conditions, Dutch companies can have their participation subsidised by Support International Business (SIB).
