Southern Gaming Summit

The Southern Gaming Summit is the premier gaming conference and convention for the South — a can’t-miss event for operators and anyone who wants to do business in this region. From Texas to Florida, SGS covers the issues that matter to gaming operators and suppliers. Founded in 1994, SGS has a long history of business development in the region, whether it’s commercial casinos, tribal gaming, community gaming or iGaming.

Attendees have the opportunity to learn from an extensive conference program, network with colleagues and earn an understanding about industry best practices, the latest technologies, products and services.

Sponsors and Exhibitors have access to a wide range of casino executives—decision-makers in gaming, hospitality, food-and-beverage, entertainment, marketing, government and many more. The visibility sponsors and exhibitors want in the South starts at SGS.

Learn from compelling conference sessions, hear about the latest cutting-edge products and services available to make casino resorts more profitable, and network with the leading executives from some of the most prestigious gaming companies in the nation.

Best of all, SGS showcases the beauty and offerings of the Mississippi Gulf Coast and the hospitality that comes naturally to the friendly people and employees who work in the industry.
