E3 2002 Dates Announced
"Because the 2002 show falls just before the Memorial Day weekend, weve changed the dates to make it a Wednesday through Friday event," said Doug Lowenstein, president of the IDSA, the video and computer game industry trade group that owns E3Expo. "This will make the show more convenient for attendees who want to enjoy the long weekend and more cost effective for exhibitors who will not incur premium labour rates."The announced dates for next years E3 are May 22nd - May 24th, Wednesday - Friday.
