After Berlin and Amsterdam, TwitchCon Europe is coming to Paris! The European convention dedicated to Twitch streamers,Amazon's live content delivery platform, is coming to France in 2023 to the delight of fans, at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles on July 8 and 9. An announcement made by Twitch France, this February 16, 2023.
The show will welcome streamers and other content creators, as well as their fans for shows ranging from cosplay to video game streams, drag queen shows, concerts and DJ sets. Also on the agenda is an"epic tribute to the streamers, the games, the chat people, the moderators, the cosplayers, the communities... that bring us all together," Twitch explains in a blog post. He continued,"It's a weekend filled with incredible live performances, esport competitions, official meet-and-greet sessions with streamers, presentations of artistic creations and, since it's all happening live and in public, lots of surprises."
A show born in the United States in 2015, taking place there every year, untilAmazon decided to export its convention to Europe in 2019. But the Covid having passed through, not easy to relaunch the show, which ultimately had only two editions in Europe for now. The last edition, in Amsterdam, attracted only 14,500 visitors. Honorable for first editions, but far from the 30 000 visitors of the TwitchCon in the United States.
And a Parisian choice that is not insignificant... And for good reason: the platform took advantage of the confinement, in 2020, to double its audience in France, despite a slight drop in 2021. A great promise, and a show that could, in time, impose itself throughout the continent!
