The first ICE ‘Association Assembly’ has been created to enable trade bodies to promote their values and create new opportunities for the gaming community across every sector and geography. 


What was previously ICE VOX has been rebranded The World Gaming Forum (WGF). The name more accurately reflects the events including the World Regulatory Briefing, the new Casino & Leaders Conference (formerly the ICC), and the new Esports & Games Conference – formerly the Esports Betting Conference. 


Situated at the heart of the Fira Gran Via Barcelona, the WGF features a club-style VIP lounge, dedicated networking garden, and access to a range of concierge services. The rebranded Sustainable Gambling Zone features 26 safer gambling bodies and underlines the importance that the industry places on sustainability and player protection.
