Exhibition Introduction
The Value of Participating in the Guangzhou Amusement Equipment Exhibition—China’s Global Amusement Expo (GTI)
- One of China’s largest and most internationally oriented B2B trade platforms for the amusement equipment sector. The Guangzhou International Amusement Equipment Industry Exhibition (GTI Guangzhou), co‑organized by the China Cultural Entertainment Industry Association, Guangzhou Convention & Exhibition Service Center Co., Ltd., and GTI Global Esports Corporation, has been held annually since its inception in 1993, earning widespread acclaim as a leading indicator of China’s amusement industry development and a key gateway for global amusement equipment manufacturers seeking access to the Chinese and Asian markets.
- A one‑stop showcase covering the entire industry value chain. The exhibition encompasses all segments of the industry, including indoor amusement parks, theme parks, water parks, children’s playgrounds, VR/AR/MR equipment, electronic gaming devices, inflatable amusement equipment, mechanical amusement rides, outdoor sports gear, and park planning and design services. From large roller coasters and water slides to compact capsule machines and claw machines, and from traditional amusement facilities to metaverse‑based immersive experiences, exhibitors can seamlessly integrate product display, brand exposure, and commercial negotiations within a single platform.
- Precise connections with global core buyers and industry resources. With an exhibition area of 80,000 square meters in 2026, the event will host over 500 exhibiting companies and attract approximately 100,000 professional visitors and buyers worldwide. These buyers include decision‑makers from arcades, children’s playgrounds, theme parks, scenic spots, shopping malls, KTVs, and other sectors. International buyers hail from Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe and North America, Russia, and other regions, enabling exhibitors to directly engage with some of the world’s most influential purchasing groups.
- Unique value for Chinese enterprises—strategic engine for expanding into international markets. GTI Guangzhou serves as a pivotal platform for Chinese amusement equipment companies to showcase proprietary technologies, connect with international clients, and secure overseas orders. Supported by the Chinese government’s policy encouraging cultural and entertainment enterprises to “go global”—such as tariff reductions on exports of Chinese amusement equipment—this platform provides a competitive edge in overseas markets. Furthermore, in 2019, GTI Guangzhou, in collaboration with Guangzhou Convention & Exhibition Service Center Co., Ltd., launched the “China Game & Amusement Management Business School,” dedicated to cultivating high‑level, multidisciplinary managerial talent and elevating overall industry operational standards.
- A cutting‑edge hub for technological innovation and industry trendsetting. At the exhibition, metaverse‑based immersive devices, AI‑powered claw machines, fully automated unmanned capsule machines, and VR esports equipment have become standout innovations. A novel capsule machine combining “capsule sales, gift sales, and an online mall,” along with an intelligent claw machine designed to accurately grasp objects and adapt to children’s gripping habits, are setting new trends in entertainment consumption. Exhibiting companies can leverage these developments to gain insights into the industry’s shift toward “smart, unmanned, and immersive” solutions, securing early advantages in the evolving market for upgraded entertainment experiences.
- Guangzhou’s locational and industrial advantages. Held at the China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou, the exhibition is situated at the heart of the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area, one of China’s most important production and export hubs for game and amusement equipment. Leveraging Guangzhou’s strategic position as an international trade center and a “millennial commercial metropolis,” GTI Guangzhou offers exhibitors a powerful platform to connect with both national and global markets.
