Brasil Game Show 2026 closed its doors on Monday, October 12, a national holiday in Brazil (Our Lady of Aparecida and Children’s Day). The show ran for four days at Distrito Anhembi in São Paulo: October 9 was reserved for press, creators and Premium, Camarote and Business Pass holders, while October 10, 11 and 12 were open to the public.

According to the organizers, Saturday (October 10) was the busiest day, with 100% of tickets sold. Booths kept running tournaments and handing out giveaways right up to the last day.
