Fourways Mall - Rooftop (Level 8)
Details
South Africa’s legendary gaming event has levelled up.
For more than two decades, rAge has been where South Africa's gaming community comes together. It's where memories are made, rivalries begin, friendships are forged and gaming culture comes to life.
Now, it's time to evolve.
rAge returns to Fourways Mall for its biggest evolution yet, transforming from a traditional gaming event/expo into a full-scale festival celebrating gaming, esports, technology and digital culture.
Gaming remains at the heart of rAge, but there’s now more to experience than ever. Expect a packed weekend of gaming, esports, live entertainment, creators, cosplay, anime, technology, competitions, community and immersive experiences — with something for hardcore gamers, casual players, families, creators, tech enthusiasts and first-time visitors alike.
Explore the latest games, gear and technology, get involved in competitions, watch esports action, meet creators and communities, discover local game development, celebrate cosplay and fandom, or simply soak up the atmosphere of one of South Africa’s biggest gaming and geek culture festivals.
And rAge 2026 isn't just about looking at what's next, it's about experiencing it. Interactive attractions, creator-led content, live experiences, community spaces and immersive activations will turn the festival into a place to play, compete, discover, create and connect.
The future also meets the past through rAge 2026's distinctive retrofuturism theme, blending the nostalgia and visual language of gaming's history with technology, ideas and experiences inspired by the future.
And don't worry, the classics are still here. The legendary BYOC LAN, artist alley, esports, cosplay, local game development, tabletop gaming, technology showcases, gaming gear, show specials and more remain part of the rAge experience that fans have loved for more than two decades.
Whether you're a lifelong gamer, an esports fanatic, a cosplay and anime fan, a creator, a technology enthusiast, a family looking for an unforgettable day out, or simply curious about what all the fuss is about, rAge 2026 has a place for you.
More ways to play. More ways to experience. More reasons to be there.
