PlayStation E3 Experience 2018: Live in Theaters June 11

Can't make it to E3 this year? Don’t sweat it – find a participating theater near you and watch the festivities on the big screen.

Update: Tickets are live! Click here to get yours, but note that they are limited. If you don’t snag one, see below for more information about how you may still be able to attend.

E3 is almost here and I’m excited to announce that the PlayStation E3 Experience is returning! Join us on Monday June 11th in theaters across the United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, and – new this year – Chile!

This is the fifth year we’re broadcasting our E3 Showcase live to theaters. Experiencing the excitement of E3 alongside the PlayStation community brings a new dimension to the event, which is difficult to fully explain… this video might help.

Attendees this year will take home an exclusive poster and some other goodies. Want more than just physical swag? We’ve got you covered — everyone will also get a digital gift basket chock-full of treats. This year digital goods will be distributed via the Experience PlayStation app, so make sure to download it before you arrive at the theater if you want to redeem them immediately.

Sounds great, how do I attend?

Tickets are free and will be available at starting on Tuesday, June 5th at 11:00 AM PDT while supplies last. Check back here for the link. I highly recommend setting a reminder, because once the tickets are gone – they’re gone. This year tickets for all regions will be available at the same ticketing site.

Registering for a ticket will reserve your seat as long as you check in at the theater 30 minutes before show time. If you don’t check in by this time your seat will be released to non-ticketed fans (who have queued for a seat) on a first-come first-served basis.

Please note: Attendees must be 17 years of age or older to attend this event (18+ in Brazil). A valid form of ID providing age will be required to enter.

I didn’t get a ticket, what now?

Those without tickets can queue at the theater starting two hours before showtime. You will not be able to line up earlier than this. Open seats will be given out to those in the queue on a first-come first-served basis starting 30 minutes before the show starts.

  • Hopefully they add more places before June 5th.

  • I have gone every year, was going to bring a few friends that have never been. Can’t believe no theaters in San Antonio! Bummer, for sure.

  • WOW! NO E3 San Fransisco theater experience this year?

    BUMMER, my oldest son and I have been going every year since the beginning and I was hoping to get one more in with him before he leaves for basic training at the end of JUNE..
    Well hopefully the list is updated with some more theaters cause this list is kinda tiny compared to years past…
    Again WHAT a BUMMER!

  • well… south dakota not on list and closest thing is eagan MN….

    6 hour drive not worth it…..

    Really depressed about this since I have always gone to these… wish they would have gone with cinemark again since that is in our area….

    is there any possibility for any willing local theaters to host it ???

  • I’ve been going for the past 3 years to the venue in Rockville MD and it was always a blast and a unique experience I’ll never forget! Please bring back Rockville!!!

    • Rockville was a blast:). I get that sometimes maryland may not be selected but c’mon no D.C either you gotta have something in DC at least for the DMV people

  • One in all of Texas really? Thats just sad no love for Dallas San Antonio or even Austin? There isn’t another even close…..

  • Can I bring my son he is 14?

  • SpiffyTheYveltal

    I wish there was more threaters really disappointed there not as many this year and I’m not the only one that is. So many people look forward to e3 and this event why ruin it by not having it at as many threaters, does it really cost that much?

  • Way to disappoint fans Sony. Your going to cut down the theater list especially after that horrendous fiasco with the gofobo tickets last year. Please listen to your fans and add more showings.

  • Wow! No Charlotte the biggest city in NC.
    I got to go the past 2 years.
    I may drive to Raleigh.

  • Can’t wait. I have that day off. See whoever in Orlando.

  • I’m excited I get to go again for the 5th year in a row down here in Houston, but please get some more theaters up there! Every state in the USA deserves a chance to go!

  • Extremely disappointed at the removal of a bunch of NA theaters. It was already nearly impossible to get a seat, now I absolutely won’t be able to go, especially if it’s using the same garbage service for ticket distribution as last year that crashed for 30 hours straight.

    • I was reading those comments from last year recently. What a mess that was! Made me think they wouldn’t do it again this year. Glad they are still doing it but now they need to add more theaters.

    • The fact they haven’t announced what site they’re using makes me optimistic they’re probably going back to eventgrid. But who knows. I’m just disappointed that this is the first one i’m gonna miss because they decided my city wasn’t good enough despite being packed every year. Hopefully the digital rewards aren’t too good this year, otherwise i’m gonna feel awful for not taking that 8 hour drive to houston, lol.

  • So many states missing from this list. Sony why would you make it so difficult for fans to want to come out and be excited. I have gone the past three years running but your shameful decision to snub so much of the country means I won’t even bother making the effort. E3 is the time of year to celebrate your fans and consumers and want to involve them as much as possible. This feels like a slap in the face and I’m both hurt and disappointed.

  • Unfortunately I missed the previous events in Bellevue, WA, so when I friend mentioned it to me, I was so excited to finally go this year. What a big surprise when WA was not one of the states that will be hosting it. What gives Sony? Microsoft is based here so you should show your fans how much you mean to them. I’ve been a PlayStation player since the PS2 and would love to check all the new games out with fellow Sony fans. Come on and add WA to the list. Thanks!

    • Exactly. Sony should be representing in Seattle, WA. Show off your sweet games right in the backyard of Microsoft and Valve. Let the Xbox and PC gamers see what they’re missing out on.

  • Osea que solo sera en cd de México? En guadalajara/jalisco donde a vemos también gran parte de gamers no habrá salas de cine que pasen el evento? Hay muchos cinepolis que con gusto lo pasarian.

    Seria fantástico que si hubiera pero a ver si sony nos ayuda con eso, amenos que solo sean lugares específicos del mundo y no mas de un punto.

  • What happened to the location in Sunset Place in Florida? I’ve been there every year I’ve been able to and you guys just removed it?

    It was part of the original venues, it’s always packed, and near a major city of Miami.

    Please bring it back before the 5th.

  • Broadcast… the event… for PSVR… Please.

    It’s not that difficult; several third-party companies offer services to rig events for VR.

    (see The Games Awards)

  • Lame…I was really looking forward to seeing PS Experience in theaters again like last year (missed the year before)

    and it’s a shame since we have both AMC and Regal theaters down here in the New Orleans area

  • The previous 3 years have been filled with great memories; attending a show each of those years in the Cincinnati area with 10-20 friends. It truly made E3 an experience. I am saddened to find it won’t be coming to my area this year, but I do understand the logistic side of it. Hopefully come next year you will be able to bring it back to the Cincinnati area.

    • Why don’t you go to the Columbus one? I’ve gone to both Cincy and Columbus and I think Columbus is better and I’m in Dayton making the drive up there. I hope to be there once again this year. You and your friends should travel that way

  • Still waiting for an explanation Sony for the lack of theaters… or rather hopefully an answer saying you’re bringing missing theaters back.

    • @neutral chaos call Sony! I’m posting everywhere I can that they are taking any and all feedback! If enough people express disappointment and contact them and let them know they might do more theaters! The rep told me that that list isint finalized.
      I called customer support for reference.

  • Bad news guys… this is was I was told

    So as recommended I called and asked why the number of theaters are so low this year. According to a boss that my operator was able to talk to the reason why they are not where they would normally be is because the theaters would not lease slots to them because they were not making enough money to satisfy; they would rather have a movie that people would go see and more importantly buy snacks. So this is not a Sony problem apparently, but a theater issue.

    I really hope this does not mean there is no hope for more places to be added, but it does make sense from a business standpoint.

    • PlayStation could have made fans pay 20 -40 buck to support the theaters that excuses not selling enough is just not true a lot of people at my theater had bought popcorn and one year I went at one guy spent 500 on popcorn and gave out to people at the door being nice

    • I call bogus if they really said that. My local chain rents out theaters to private parties all the time. It’s 100 dollars for two hours, I’m sure it’d be cheaper for a corporation like Sony to send people there. I’m in Phoenix, I could go set this up for them if they want lol

    • @soldierone
      I live in Tucson AZ!
      I have some friends here who would be interested, if you end up organizing something, because I know some Tucson people that are irritated and I know you guys in Phoenix are mad this is not happening! If something can be organized in Phoenix PLEASE let me know!

    • If there is anything I can do on my end let me know!

    • Ironically, this is the one time I buy snacks from the theater because I view it as a special occasion worthy of such extravagance. Then again my theater is on the list this year.

  • I know that infants are not allowed at e3 in LA, but what about in the theater for this conference? We have a new baby and would like it if we didn’t have to find a babysitter since he’ll probably just sleep through it anyway.

  • Effin a, No feckin’ MADISON WI THEATERS WTF!!!!!
    Why does Wi always get feckin’ screwed with no lube??
    Get this in Madison Wi!!

  • Come on Sony.
    This is a big missed opportunity for you as a company, you have such a great following in the video games market. With some of the loyalist fans in the industry.
    Microsoft and Nintendo have nothing like this for their fans, i have been to these events every year and there are literally line ups outside the cinemas just hoping to get a spare seat.

    Increase the seats and theatres and your fans will love you for it.

  • Why no Hawaii this year? It’s not like we can drive to another state like the continental US lol.

  • Sadly no love for AZ at all this year I Guess. :(

  • Will there be a card this year at the E3 experience?

  • Wow this is so unfair I went for the last three years here in Fort Lauderdale to the Sawgrass movie theater to be able to have this experience and now I was looking so forward to another year to hang out with PlayStation fans cuz I’m a huge PlayStation fan and I look forward to this every year and now they’re not even having it here only in Orlando and Jacksonville which are 4 hours away from me they had shows the last three years in Fort Lauderdale and Miami and now they don’t this is just terrible

  • Omg I’m so mad what happen to regal Cinema Sawgrass 23 movie theater Fort Lauderdale Florida you guys have had it there since it started I have been to every one and it’s always a packed out show people even waiting that can’t get in I don’t get it it seems like the way this list is cut down this year just seems very disrespectful to Sony fans we all want to be able to be in company of other Sony fans and enjoy this great experience together if anything delicious always be attitude not taken away from please Sony Rectify this before the 5th

  • Can we please get this theme in the Sony store.

  • ☹ no west virginia. I dont know if there was one last year due to starting a new job but i did go to the year before that. I was so hype going this year.

  • That’s weird that there’s no Louisiana spots on this list. Maybe they will add more places on the 5th cause that seems way too short of a list……

  • It sucks that we don’t know what site will be used for registration. Is it the Gofobo website again? Also, I wonder if the changes to the conference are the reason they’re not widely showing in theaters. Anyway, Sony should have implemented a PSVR exclusive E3 showing to appease fans and drum up sales.

  • My brorher, son and I have been going to this every year and it is something we really look forward to. Please reconsider and add more theatres and make sure to include Sioux Falls, SD

    Thanks!

  • Super sad not near me this year one of the best gaming experiences ive had 3 years in a row is not bad..

  • Too bad it’s not in Hawaii this year. Couldn’t make it to E3 this year, so this was the next best thing.

  • Tenho 17 anos posso entra acompanhado com uma pessoa maior de 18anos??

  • Tenho 17 anos posso entrar no evento acompanhado de alguem maior de idade??

  • Anyone know if I can sign up for two tickets? or is it one per PSN login or something?

  • Sony please add more theater by tomorrow or just delay the tickets for about a day or two just so you can add more places to bring the E3 experience in .

  • No Dallas,Texas. WTH Sony! Maybe this year your stream source won’t lag every 10 minutes making your true fans miss out on great trailer moments.

  • How did Houston make the cut when San Antonio hosted it the last couple years. Whose behind these decisions

  • None in washington? Lame . me and all my bros have gone every year and now we are not included. How lame maybe you shouldn’t host one at all this year if its going to be half assed

  • Aw, not coming to Seattle?? :(

  • really surprised and sad to see no dallas listing, last year was my first time getting to attend this, and had planned to go again this year, guess ill just have to enjoy it from home

  • I hope Sony don’t use gofobo like last year. It was an absolute disaster

  • Where is the ticket link?
    It is past time?!

  • Alguien sabe si ya están disponibles las entradas?

  • No show in South Florida? Cmon! I’ve been going there since 2016.
