Xbox FanFest Is Coming Home to Seattle for Xbox’s 25th Anniversary

Xbox is bringing FanFest back to where it all began. The final stop of this year’s eight-city FanFest Tour will take place at Seattle’s Museum of Pop Culture on November 12.

Xbox FanFest Seattle will celebrate 25 years of Xbox

The event arrives just three days before Xbox officially celebrates its 25th anniversary on November 15. Fans can expect hands-on gameplay, Xbox history, collectibles, trivia, and activities celebrating the brand’s journey.

Xbox also plans to bring fans closer to the people behind its games. An Xbox Gear pop-up shop will be available alongside other surprises planned for the event. The Seattle stop will mark the finale of this year’s FanFest Tour. Xbox says the celebration will cover its past, present, and future.

Fans can enter for a chance to attend

Xbox is offering fans two different sweepstakes opportunities tied to the Seattle event. The first gives eligible U.S. residents a chance to win admission to FanFest Seattle. Entrants must be at least 18 years old. Travel and lodging are not included with that ticket sweepstakes.

There is also a Green Ticket Trip Sweepstakes offering one winner and a guest a trip to Seattle. The prize includes attendance at Xbox FanFest Seattle. Both sweepstakes close on October 11, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. PT. Xbox has explicitly mentioned that no purchase is necessary to enter. You can check rules here.

Xbox says fans unable to attend can still join the wider celebration online. The company has also launched an Xbox 25th anniversary hub featuring more information about the milestone.
