THE INTERNET.
IN ONE ROOM.
Every day, creators compete across Twitch while their communities cheer them on from behind a screen. Competitive Game-A-Thon brings that energy into one room: streamers become competitors, chat becomes a crowd you can actually meet, and friendly rivalries turn into a live championship.
Planned for San Diego during TwitchCon week 2027, this is an independent event with free admission until capacity. Guests are expected to provide their name and Twitch handle at entry; no convention badge is planned to be required. The date, venue and entry process are still being finalized.

Not every game needs a controller. Three short physical challenges are proposed between the main games while the next round is prepared. Winners can earn a small bonus for the game that follows. Games and challenges subject to change.

A possible crowd-pleaser, subject to venue approval and food-safety planning.
THE WILDCARD
Three game choices are planned through advance community polls. The host could give a trailing team the last say as a wildcard.

THERE'S ROOM
IN THIS GAME
FOR YOU.
Four ways to help make Vol. 01 happen. Creators can compete. Venues can host the crowd. Partners can back the experience. Communities can spread the word. Attending the event and registering to compete are separate paths.
MISSION 02 / HOST THE ROOM
GIVE THE GAME A HOME.
We're looking for a hotel or event space within walking distance of the San Diego Convention Center. Bring the room; we'll bring the creator competition, live stream, and community energy.

VERB_DAN.
Competitive Game-A-Thon is hosted by Twitch creator verb_dan. On the night, he's the voice guiding the room through the competition — working the crowd, introducing the rounds, keeping the energy up, and bringing everyone together for the championship reveal.
Dan’s concept begins at the door: a themed arrival, creator and sponsor merch, and light refreshments. After a five-minute show call, he welcomes the room and everyone watching live on Twitch.
