TwitchCon is a semi-annual convention for the video live-streaming service Twitch. It is organized by Twitch Interactive and focuses on the culture of live-streaming, entertainment, esports and internet culture. TwitchCon is open to industry professionals, streamers, and fans; the convention allows community members to meet streamers, discover new products, and trial upcoming games.[1] The North American convention is set to be hosted in San Diego through 2028,[2] and the European convention is set to be held in Rotterdam through 2026.[3]
The first convention was held in 2015 in San Francisco. In 2019, the first European convention was held in Berlin. TwitchCon is hosted twice a year, in North America for three days and in Europe for two days.[4] All North American conventions were held in California until 2023, in which an event in Las Vegas took place. The North American convention is most frequently hosted in San Diego. The European conventions have been held in Berlin, the Netherlands, and Paris; though most commonly in the Netherlands.
