AcadArena has announced that CONQuest 2023 is returning on June 2-4, 2023, along with a star-studded lineup of international guests, including Rachell “Valkyrae” Hofstetter, Leslie “Fuslie” Fu, and Kaede “Kyedae” Shymko.

Other guests include Antony “AntonyChenn” Chen, variety content creator Atsu “AsianGuyStream”, OSU streamer Edward “BTMC” Ling, James Reid, and much more. Another wave of guests will be announced, and we’ll have to wait and see what the AcadArena team has in store for everybody.

CONQuest 2023 is also adding musical performances, headlined by the Korean rock band The Rose, who recently held their PH concert at the SM Skydome. EDM DJs, rappers, and local rising stars will also be part of the lineup of performers, which will be announced at a later date.

Gamers and gaming enthusiasts will definitely love activities like the Expo Floor, a section where they can meet with top game publishers and tech brands, and the Freeplay Arcade where gamers of all ages can play past and present hits in the gaming community. Artists and art lovers also have the chance to share their trade at the Creator’s Market.

“When we started CONQuest 6 years ago, AcadArena wasn’t even a thing back then. All I knew was that I wanted to recreate the same magical feeling I got when I went to my first gaming convention (ESGS), but for my hometown. We’ve gone a long way from a 700-person convention to a 33,000+ international event last July 2022. We’re very proud of CQ becoming one of the largest events in the country and we can’t wait to show an even bigger and better experience for everybody,” said Justin Banusing of AcadArena.

CONQuest 2023 is returning on June 2-4, 2023.
