E3 2017
 ESA
Consumer tickets for this year’s E3 will go on sale Feb. 12, according to show organizer the Entertainment Software Association.
The video game industry’s annual jamboree has been running since 1995. Until last year, it was only open to members of the trade such as retailers, developers and publishers as well as media. But last year, the ESA sold 15,000 tickets to consumers, reversing a general decline in attendance.
For E3 2018, consumer tickets will once again be limited, and sold on a first-come, first-served basis. The ESA hasn’t said how many tickets will be available this year, but E3’s hours are being extended to accommodate the show’s growing numbers.
“Gamers raise the energy of E3 to a fever pitch, reinforcing its place as the world’s preeminent event for video games,” said Michael Gallagher, president and CEO of ESA. “We are excited to fuel that passion and enhance the gamer experience at E3 by extending show hours.”
The show will be open to consumers for three days, beginning on Tuesday June 12. Trade visitors will be able to access the show earlier than consumers on the first two days of the show, which are open to the public in the afternoons and early evening. The show is open to all attendees on the final day, which is generally the least busy day.
Prices for three-day tickets are $249, with the first 1,000 tickets available for $149 each.E3 has a useful FAQ page that addresses questions about attendance.
In 2017, the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) opened to the public for the first time in the show's history. This is happening again this year, and now we know when public tickets will go on sale. E3 organiser the Electronic Software Association announced today that E3 2018 public tickets will go on sale starting on February 12. Specifically, you'll be able to secure a ticket at 12 PM ET that day, so make yourself a reminder now.
According to E3's registration page, the first 1,000 tickets will be available for $150. After those are gone (and they went quickly last year), the ESA will sell the rest for $250. In 2017, the ESA made 15,000 public tickets available, but it is not clear how many are up for grabs this year.
In 2017, tickets got you access to the show floor, panel discussions, and other events from Tuesday through Thursday of E3 week. It also included access to games media veteran Geoff Keighley's Coliseum event, which featured interviews and more. Keighley confirmed today that the Coliseum is returning this year, and if you can't make it in person, the coverage will be streamed online. More details on the "amazing lineup of guests" for this show will be announced soon.
E3 2018 runs June 12-14 in Los Angeles. However, the major press conferences from company's such as Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, EA, Ubisoft, Bethesda, and others are expected to take place earlier in the week.
 
E3 is now just about four months away, so we're expecting to start hearing the first rumblings of what to expect in the weeks and months ahead. For its part, Microsoft confirmed in January that it had already started planning for its E3 briefing this year, which the company says will include some "positive changes" compared to past years.
