IGN Live 2026 Opens in Los Angeles with Jackass Stars

IGN Live 2026 begins this Saturday, June 6, in Los Angeles with a mix of gaming reveals and celebrity appearances ^[1].

The event serves as a major intersection for the gaming and entertainment industries, blending hands-on software demos with high-profile promotional appearances. By integrating mainstream celebrity culture with gaming hardware, the expo aims to expand the reach of its featured titles to a broader audience.

The two-day event runs from June 6 to June 7, 2026 ^[1]. The Day 1 livestream is scheduled to start at noon PT, 3 p.m. ET, and 8 p.m. UK [1, 2]. Attendees and viewers can expect a variety of activities, including livestreamed panels, celebrity interviews, and floor activations ^[1].

Among the high-profile guests are stars from the Jackass franchise, including O, Wee Man, Poopies, and Jasper ^[2]. Their appearance is tied to the promotion of a project titled "Jackass: Best and Last" ^[2]. Other featured creators include Control Resonant and the Deli Boys ^[2].

On the gaming side, the expo emphasizes accessibility and variety. The venue features more than 170 playable game stations ^[3]. The lineup of playable titles includes anticipated releases such as Forza Horizon 6 and 007 ^[3]. These stations allow attendees to experience new mechanics and graphics first-hand before the games reach the general public.

IGN will broadcast the proceedings across all its digital platforms to reach a global audience [1, 2]. The event combines these digital broadcasts with the physical presence of the Los Angeles venue to create a hybrid experience for fans who cannot travel to California ^[1].
