Morocco’s flagship celebration of gaming and esports, the LGAMING AWARDS, is officially back for its fourth edition. In collaboration with the Ministry of Youth, Culture, and Communication, this year’s edition forms part of the prestigious Morocco Gaming Expo 2025, scheduled to take place at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Sports Complex in Rabat.
Building on the momentum of its previous successful editions, LGAMING AWARDS 2025 aims to spotlight the most impactful Moroccan streamers, esports players, teams, casters, and content creators. The event launched on June 7 and will culminate in a grand awards ceremony on July 6, 2025.
Empowering Morocco's Gaming Ecosystem
Far more than an award show, the LGAMING AWARDS is a platform designed to celebrate innovation, amplify local talent, and promote the Moroccan gaming industry on a global scale. With the international video game sector now valued at over $200 billion, this event represents a strategic opportunity for Morocco to stake its claim in a thriving global market.

A Trophy with Meaning
Far from being just a symbol, the official LGAMING AWARDS 2025 trophy carries profound significance. It represents struggle, resilience, and creative perseverance. Its every edge reflects discipline, its cracks echo the doubts overcome, and its weight symbolizes the countless hours spent coding, creating, and playing — all in pursuit of a dream.
It is, as the organizers describe, “a symbol of greatness — earned, not given.”
