The Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) is the premier trade event for the video game industry. Each year E3 is produced and hosted by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA). The event has become the venue of choice for many video game developers, publishers, and hardware and accessory manufacturers to debut and present their upcoming games and merchandise for the following year.
Since it's first event in 1995, E3 has been regarded as the biggest event in the video game industry. The event is held each year at the Los Angeles Convention Center (LACC) in Los Angeles. This years show is scheduled for June 11–13, 2019.
