PlayStation E3 Experience 2017: Live in Theaters June 12

Can't make it to E3 this year? Never fear! Swing by your local cinema and watch the festivities on the big screen.

Tickets Update: We’re looking into issues users are having getting tickets to this year’s E3 Experience. Stay tuned for updates.


5/31 Update — Some changes and updates on ticket and seat availability:

  • Ticket registration will open today, Wednesday 5/31/17, at 1:30PM PT.
  • There was a brief system test last night which allowed a small number of tickets to be claimed. As of this morning there are still plenty of tickets remaining at each theater.
  • If you received a ticket confirmation email you are guaranteed a seat at the event if you present your valid ticket at least 30 minutes before show time.
  • We will be admitting those without tickets on a first-come first-served basis after all present ticket holders are seated.


E3 is almost here and I’m excited to announce that the PlayStation E3 Experience is returning for 2017! Join us on Monday, June 12th in over 85 theaters across the United States, Canada, and Latin America.

This is the fourth year we’re broadcasting our E3 Press Conference live to theaters across North America and I can’t wait to bring the excitement of E3 straight to you. Watching the announcements and news alongside other members of the PlayStation community is an experience like no other.

Attendees will take home an exclusive poster and #76 from the PlayStation Collectable Card series. This will be the only way to get your hands on these, so don’t miss out! Want more than just limited edition swag? We’ve got you covered — everyone will also get a digital gift basket chock-full of goodies from PlayStation Store.

  • 2 days of trying, only got an “invalid code” screen after the site said “processing…” and just received 2 passes to someone else’s screening in my mailbox……. I’m speechless……………………

  • so i was able to get to the part where it asks you how many tickets, but when i clicked next it sent me back to the login page and i can’t log in and now i get invalid code message again. not sure if i was successful in securing tickets or not :/

  • SaviorRoseDragon

    i wonder is sony pulled the site again

  • I just realized that my actual PDF ticket is for Trevor D at Regal Waterford Lakes Stadium in Orlando, Florida. *Facepalm*

  • please
    NEVER use gofobo ever again
    I don’t know why y’all switched away from eventgrid since it worked so well, I don’t know if y’all were trying to help the small man but it doesn’t work. not only could they not handle all the people trying to get tickets, they lost potential customers already. doesn’t help that with a quick research, they give out more tickets than there are seats

  • SagittariusX159

    Vegas here I come

  • Ok so got mine now, I would suggest using the google login function or twitter or any of those, I kept getting logged out of my actual account on the site also it said processing for a good 20 mins but I got the email just now so don’t start spamming refresh or resend at that point if you are there. Be patient.
    Also to everyone who was earlier saying spam refresh if it doesn’t work… as someone who used to build websites… DON’T EVER DO THAT lol. I get it we were all impatient but that is one of the worst things to do… us doing that actually created pretty much a DDOS attack on the site. We overloaded it, yes the site should’ve been built better, hopefully sony moves to a different site next year or does what I highly recommend and do a rollout of regions, basically give a week notice to create accounts in advance and sign up for alters, then do hourly or every 2 hours a new region gets added to sign up for which helps space out the traffic rush. I know I’m playing devils advocate here and a lot of people will tell me off or be mad I am saying we all are to blame too but it’s true.

  • Sony, please don’t use gofobo.com again for this. This is a freaking joke. I hope gofobo.com goes down because they are suck.

  • this gofobo thing is ridiculous. im 30 ears of age and it tells me im 13 and too young to attend, i already have an account with them and it doe not allow me to log in saying that my email is not valid and nothing exists. screw this website, oh and not to mention nothing but invalid code. and i also got a stupid maintenance page. why dont you guys work on the link instead of making everyone who isnt a hacker happy

  • Yea now apparently my account doesnt exist so im doing guest login and now its saying im underage lol. I was born in 88 not 2004 lol.

  • Finally! Over 24 hours later and I finally got them! Check your gofobo account to see if you already snagged some tickets since they are not sending out confirmation emails to everyone.

  • What the hell? It was finally going well and heck I even got to the ticket page but now it won’t let me in and keeps giving me invalid code. I even tried making a new account but despite me being born in 1994 it keeps saying I’m underage even though I did the same thing a day or so ago and made it in just fine. What is going on?

  • so I tried login into my account, apparently my account no longer exists
    so I decided to make one and it told me I’m under age. I’m 23? what the f?

  • I got someone elses and mine, someone had Sioux Falls

  • Finally got mine after various error trying to log in today. At least it would get me to the login today. Yesterday…..I don’t want to talk about yesterday!!

  • oh hey it actually let me place the order for once yay.

  • got my ticket and email with the correct information

  • Finally got my tickets, the tradition will live on! I have went to every one so far and I was quite upset how poor this one was setup but I got tickets none the less.

  • Refreshed around 3 times a second since before the button even showed up yesterday at 1 it is now 5:46pm and I finally got friggin tickets

  • what should I do with this other one? its not mine

  • After an hour of trying today and trying all day yesterday, I finally got two passes for Topeka, KS. That was an absolutely ridiculous experience. Sony, next year please hire someone who can handle the traffic.

  • Hey if there is a Bobby M. Here going to Columbia, SC I have your ticket. My ticket changed from mine to this one. Lucky me, I saved mine when it showed up the first time. So Bobby M. in Columbia, SC send me a message on PSN and i’ll send you your ticket if you get it mixed up. You just have to tell me what the M for your last name is.

  • After a hour of the all the bs I finally got a ticket, this will be my forth year going.

  • I got it!. I did 2 but said must enter with group. Are they not gonna allow me in if my friend cant make it?.

    • No,that just means that the rest of the party can’t be let in later. It always works that way for events. They’ll let you in if you say you’re solo now

  • Well that was unpleasant. It says my location has not tickets available. Two days of this garbage only to fail. SONY please never use GOFOBO gain, their servers obviously can’t handle the demand. Also, since the venues sell out so quickly why not add more screenings (even if you charge $2 I’m sure most of us would be okay with that the demand is obviously there if we (PlayStation Nation) can crash a site so effectively.

  • Erik O niel?

  • Ladies and gentlemen, a miracle happened. I managed to get my 2 tickets! It only took 29 hours, but mission accomplished. -_-

  • Yo what the $%#@ after 2 days of this i finally get tickets but i open my email and its someone by the name of KC from GA. UMMM im from NEW YORK sony so did i get the vip passes the ones where your paying all inclusive trip to ga cause yea not going there under someone else. So KC from ga hit me up and ill send u ur tickets

    • Try downloading it from their site directly…Rather than the email, mine were different from the email they sent. So odd…

    • they can get theirs and you can get yours from the gofobo account

  • Finally, I got my tickets in Toronto. But, in the email, I received the tickets for someone in Midlothian, VA! :)) then I downloaded the tickets from the website and the information is correct.

  • Mak3itaphattyyy

    TIP: If you got tics with the wrong name, etc, go to “my account” scroll down to “Screenings I’m attending” then print the PDF directly from the website, so that your personal info is correct> Hope this helps! RefreshGAF

  • Crazymanwalking1

    OH THANK GOD! Finally after so many invalid codes, I finally got my pass http://imgur.com/SQOuphe my shirt is drenched in sweat from all the stress

    please dont ever use GoFoBo for any of your events, this whole thing has been a utter disaster

  • the gofobo site IS DUMB AS ****.. IVE LOGGED INTO MY ACCOUNT BUT FIRST IT SAID I WASNT OLD ENOUGH WITH MY CORRECT DOB, THE NEXT TIME IT SAYS THERE ISNT A PS ECPERIENCE ..WTF

  • SaviorRoseDragon

    I GOT MY TICKETS!!!!!!!!!! and for the correct location too. I’m soo happy i can cry about it now LOL.

    but since i’ve been hanging out with u guys since yesterday i’m going to stay here and hang out with u guys some more fo the hell of it. i wanna see everyone succeed after going through this torturous hell

  • Crazymanwalking1

    Holy crap 1441 (and counting) comments? Pretty sure that a new record for a single blogpost on this site

    And its all thanks to GoFoBo

  • And I FINALLY have my tickets, an hour and a half later. Took a while but I got ’em.

  • I GOT MY TICKETS!!! I’m going in San Antonio, TX. ANyone else here going there?

  • Ok I finally got it to work, just used at least one more email that I had on hand in order to help me with it. Bout darn time. Also if a moderator finds my previous post I’m sorry for the f-bomb I dropped, I was just really frustrated.

  • FINALLY!!! I hope the rest of you get your tickets.

  • MamaBear20112013

    So I got two tickets, but my friend might have to work that night. It says MUST ENTER WITH GROUP…will I still be able to go in if it’s just me…

  • ESPADA_number_0

    I literally just loaded again after tweeting it failed and now the website worked lol, I got my tickets

  • Took a bit of refreshing, but I was able to get my passes. Please don’t use Gofobo ever again. To say the whole process was nothing short of frustrating is a total understatement. Still, I’m glad I finally got my passes, and I’m looking forward to the event!

  • Awful website but i finally got tickets

  • And Toronto is FULL!

    An hour wait and it’s full…

    If you managed to get more than the necessary pairs, give up the extras so some of us can get a guaranteed seat.

  • AngryCanuckGamer

    Heads up to anyone getting passes today:

    Remember to click the button to Download your passes!

    The confirmation emails are being sent with incorrect attachments, usually the passes of another person. If you click Download, you will receive the correct PDF file with your passes.

    Hope that helps and see you on June 12!

  • Mak3itaphattyyy

    If you have a ticket, how early should you still arrive?

    • I usually get there about 2.5-3 hours early, and am about 5-10th in line lol. The line gets pretty damn long by an hour before they let you in at 5.

  • Got my tix finally around 2:30ish AZ Time. I miss when this was held in phoenix or tempe. Hell Deer valley was closer. But Surprise AZ will be a trip lol

  • From Winnipeg. Glad to here everyone is finally getting there tickets. I was one of the lucky few who managed to get get tickets around 12:45 p.m. central time just after opening the tickets up before the site pretty much completely crashed.

    This should be a good E3 this year!!!

  • If you selected 2 passes you will not be let in alone!!!!!

    Please see this warning that pops up!

    Please note you have selected 2 seats
    All attendees must enter the theater together using the pass you will be provided. The on site screening representative will not allow access into the event unless all members of your group enter at the same time.

    Please click below to confirm you will enter with your entire group and then click continue to redeem your pass.

    • It didn’t say you have to name your second person though, so theoretically you could grab someone who doesn’t have a pass and get them to go with you.

  • Well. I did not see sony made an announcement about 1:30. Now the tickets are out for me. Thanks Sony for the heads up. Thanks. And thanks to the asshats who claimed more then 2 with multiple accounts. Thanks.

  • Of course the LA one is booked up. GOD I HATE SONY RIGHT NOW!
