Affiliates, operators, and industry leaders attending iGB Affiliate Barcelona (January 20-21st, 2026, Fira Gran Via, Barcelona, Spain, Hall 8, North Access) will have access to an unprecedented suite of networking hot spots which have been curated to maximize connections, facilitate collaboration, and power business development.
Living up to its reputation for being the best event for the international affiliate community, organizers of Clarion Gaming have worked in partnership with industry stakeholders to create an ecosystem of tailored facilities encompassing pre-bookable hosted meeting spaces, VIP Lounges and dynamic social hubs featuring tattoo salons, live DJs, immersive brand experiences, meeting pods, and complementary drinks.
Previewing the facilities that have been created in partnership with the affiliate community, Naomi Barton, Portfolio Director at Clarion Gaming, stated: “iGB Affiliate Barcelona has earned a reputation for being the ultimate iGaming affiliate event for affiliates, operators and industry leaders. The growth of the show, which is over 20% larger year-on-year, has been achieved by listening to what the industry wants and wherever possible exceeding its expectations. We are making our biggest investment on record to deliver what the international community has requested which is more and improved opportunities to network with colleagues and partners which we have been delighted to deliver.”
The key at-show networking features comprise the new for 2026 iGB Hangout (sponsored by Bet365 Partners), which will feature tattoo salons, live DJs, immersive brand experiences, meeting pods, and drinks. It is the ultimate social hub for networking, relaxing, and soaking up the show’s vibe. iGB Oasis -also new for 2026- is the outdoor counterpart to iGB Hangout. Based in the Sky Garden, it’s a prime space to relax, socialize, and absorb the show’s energy.
Moreover, iGB Introducing (sponsored by Eshkol) is a pre-bookable meeting space on the show floor, designed to make networking effortless for all attendees. Using the show’s App, participants can schedule meetings in advance at specific tables, ensuring they connect with the right people. The VIP Lounge (sponsored by Betfred) is an exclusive luxury space created for VIP guests to network, host meetings, or unwind away from the busy show floor.
