About the event

What is BRIDGE Summit?

BRIDGE Summit is a conference and exhibition for the media, content and entertainment industries. Its first edition ran at ADNEC from 8 to 10 December 2025 with seven tracks: media, creator economy, music, gaming, technology and AI, marketing and brands, and film. For 2026 it moves to Yas Island, expands to five days and focuses on the creative economy, information integrity and young people in media.

The 2025 edition reported more than 40,000 participants from 182 countries and 48 agreements signed. The audience is itself made up of creators, brands and media, so exhibitors and sponsors are judged on the quality of their own content. Strong stage photography, speaker clips and fast social posts help partners stand out.

Practical tips

Get more from BRIDGE Summit

Advice from our event crews for making your presence count online.

  • Film the demo, not the booth. People share working products. Plan one short demo that explains what you do.
  • Send session times. If your team is speaking, share stage and time so we capture it from the best angle.
  • Tag partners on day one. Partner photos on day one get reshared — doubling your reach.
  • Prepare captions early. Agree key messages before the event so posts go live within hours.
