Admittance to the event will be determined by a free-to-enter, randomly selected drawing, with attendees receiving a one-day ticket if selected. Registration for this drawing will be open from May 31st to June 22nd. You can find more information about the registration process right here.
Nintendo Live 2023 will be sharing the Seattle Convention Center with PAX West 2023, which is also scheduled to take place September 1st through September 4th. With that said, PAX West badge holders will be able to opt in to a separate promotion on the PAX website here for a chance to win Nintendo Live tickets. A PAX West badge alone does not guarantee entry to Nintendo Live.
Nintendo also announced that Nintendo Live 2023 will host two high-profile tournaments: the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Championship 2023 and the Splatoon 3 Championship 2023. Qualifier events will be hosted for each event over the next few months, with registration now open for both qualifiers. You can find more information about the tournament qualifiers right here.
Original: Last October, Nintendo sponsored a special live event in Tokyo, Japan called Nintendo Live 2022. Throughout the two-day event, fans were treated to live musical performances, panels, game competitions, and a sweet Tears of the Kingdom Link statue. Nintendo Live looked like an absolute blast, and those of us who live outside of Japan couldn’t help but feel a little jealous.
But 2023 is a new year! The Big N announced yesterday that Nintendo Live 2023 will be taking place in Seattle, Washington this September! Like its Japanese counterpart, the in-person event will feature “Nintendo Switch gameplay [opportunities], live stage performances, tournaments, photo ops, and more.” It’ll be “an all-ages celebration of Nintendo fun,” says the company.
Announcing #NintendoLive 2023, an in-person event for fans of all ages that will take place in Seattle this September! Experience Nintendo Switch gameplay, live stage performances, tournaments, photo ops, and more.
