iGB Barcelona 2026 returns in January and remains one of the most important events for casino affiliates. Taking place in Barcelona on 20–21 January 2026, the show brings together affiliates, operators, and suppliers from across the industry.

For affiliates, this event is about conversations that matter. It’s where partnerships are built, deals are discussed, and plans move forward. Genesys One will be exhibiting at the event again in 2026. We also exhibited in 2025 and saw first hand the value of meeting partners face to face.

iGB Barcelona offers a focused environment. Affiliates can connect directly with decision makers, explore new opportunities, and strengthen existing relationships. Networking happens across the exhibition floor, meeting areas, and dedicated lounges.

If you’re attending in 2026, it’s a good opportunity to connect and talk business.

What is iGB Barcelona?

iGB Affiliate Barcelona is a dedicated iGaming affiliate event that brings the commercial side of the industry together in one place. It focuses on performance driven partnerships rather than product launches or player facing promotion.

The event is built for affiliates who drive traffic, manage media, and grow brands. It also attracts operators looking to expand their casino affiliate programs, along with platforms and suppliers that support acquisition, payments, compliance, and analytics. That mix is what gives the event its value.

iGB Barcelona matters because it creates direct access. Affiliates can speak to decision makers without layers in between. Operators can meet partners who already understand their markets. Suppliers can connect with teams that influence real growth.

Meetings happen on the floor, in lounges, and during scheduled sessions. Deals are discussed openly, and partnerships often start with a simple conversation. That’s why iGB Barcelona continues to be a key date for affiliates each year.

World Gaming Week

World Gaming Week brings several major industry events together in the same city and week. iGB Affiliate runs as part of this wider schedule, alongside ICE Barcelona. For affiliates, this setup adds real value.

Co-location means more access in less time. Affiliates can attend iGB Affiliate Barcelona and, at the same time, connect with the broader gaming ecosystem at ICE. That includes operators, platform providers, payment teams, and technology suppliers who may not sit strictly inside the affiliate space.

This structure benefits affiliates who want efficiency. One trip covers multiple touchpoints across the industry. Meetings can extend beyond affiliate programs and into wider commercial discussions. It also opens doors to new tools, services, and partnerships that support long term growth.

World Gaming Week turns a two day affiliate event into a full week of opportunity, making the trip to Barcelona more worthwhile for affiliates who plan ahead.

Venue and Location

Fira Barcelona Gran Via will host iGB Barcelona, offering a modern venue built for large scale international events. The space is designed for high foot traffic, clear navigation, and efficient meetings, which suits an affiliate focused show.

Barcelona remains a strong host city for global events. It’s well connected by air, has reliable public transport, and offers plenty of accommodation near the venue. That makes planning simple for affiliates traveling from different regions.

The venue itself is easy to access and purpose built for exhibitions of this size. Key areas are spread across dedicated halls, allowing exhibitors, speakers, and networking spaces to stay connected without feeling crowded. While specific hall details are covered elsewhere, affiliates can expect a clear layout that supports meetings and movement across the show floor.

Overall, the venue and location make attending practical, efficient, and worthwhile.

Floorplan

The iGB Barcelona floorplan is designed to make meetings easier and time on site more productive. The exhibition runs across dedicated halls at the venue, with a clear layout that groups affiliates, operators, and suppliers in a logical way.

For affiliates, the floorplan matters. It helps you plan meetings in advance and avoid wasting time moving back and forth across the show. You can see where key partners are located, schedule conversations ahead of time, and leave space for walk up meetings during the day.

Genesys One will be exhibiting on the show floor at Stand 80-A80, making it easy to stop by and connect in person. Checking stand locations before the event helps affiliates plan their days better and get more value from each meeting.

Networking Lounges

Networking at iGB Affiliate Barcelona 2026 is built into the event layout, not left to chance. Affiliates have access to multiple dedicated spaces designed for meetings, informal conversations, and social interaction across both days.

Key networking areas include the Affiliate Bar, which acts as a central hub for affiliates to connect throughout the day, and iGB Introducing, a pre bookable meeting space on the show floor with 16 tables available for scheduled one on one meetings via the official event app. A dedicated host manages this space to keep meetings running smoothly.

Affiliates also have access to relaxed environments such as the Affiliate Lounge, reserved for affiliate badge holders, and iGB Oasis, an outdoor networking area exclusive to iGB Affiliate attendees. New for 2026, iGB Hangout adds additional social space across both floors, with meeting pods, live DJs, and informal meeting areas.

These spaces matter because partnerships are built through conversation. Affiliates benefit most here by having structured places to meet decision makers, follow up on introductions, and build long term relationships in settings designed for real discussion.

Official iGB Affiliate Barcelona App

The official iGB Affiliate app is designed to help affiliates plan, connect, and stay organised before and during the event. Once registered, attendees receive access to an automatically created account, allowing them to log in and start preparing ahead of time.

The app provides full access to the event agenda, making it easy to track sessions, keynotes, and panels across both days. Affiliates can search the exhibitor list, view attendee profiles, and use the interactive floorplan to navigate the venue efficiently. Meeting scheduling is built in, allowing users to message contacts and book meetings directly through the app.

Live updates and notifications keep affiliates informed about schedule changes, announcements, and on site activity. Features such as personalised schedules and digital concierge support help reduce friction and save time. Used properly, the app becomes a practical tool for managing meetings and making the most of time at iGB Barcelona.
