Casa Italia to Showcase Italy's Gaming Sector at ICE Barcelona 2027

Italy's regulated gaming sector will appear for the first time at ICE Barcelona 2027 under the name Casa Italia. The fair will take place from 18 to 20 January 2027 at Fira Barcelona Gran Via. The initiative is being carried out by IGE and GN Media in strategic partnership with WorldGaming, the organiser of ICE.

Casa Italia is not intended to be just an exhibition space. It is planned as a meeting point for industry representatives, institutions, regulatory authorities and industry associations. The aim is to showcase Italy's industrial and technological strengths, strengthen dialogue between the public and private sectors, and create international cooperation opportunities.

The programme will cover topics such as regulated markets, innovation, consumer protection, sustainability and responsible gaming. Networking events are also planned. Casa Italia will also connect with ICE initiatives that aim to support dialogue within the international regulatory community.

Alessio Crisantemi, founder of IGE and chairman of GN Media, described the project as a lasting platform that creates value over time rather than a one-off exhibition. WorldGaming Events Director Stuart Hunter highlighted Italy's importance in the European gaming sector and said the initiative aims to encourage new exchanges between businesses, institutions and regulators.

The official opening of Casa Italia will take place on Monday, 18 January 2027 at 12:00.
