Attendees planning to stream from ExileCon 2026 will need to keep their cameras away from private spaces and leave the event’s dinners and after-party off their broadcasts. Grinding Gear Games has also put limits on filming meet and greets, with an exception for a streamer’s own session.
The Auckland convention runs Nov. 7 and 8 NZT, with some attendee events beginning Nov. 6. Its event program and check-in guidance includes badge pickup hours, keynote details and the schedule for the VIP dinner and after-party.
Privacy and meet and greets
Under the streaming code of conduct, attendees should move on if someone signals that they do not want to be included in a stream. Cameras must also stay out of bathrooms and other places where people expect privacy. Streamers must not belittle or mock attendees, including staff.
Filming or streaming someone else’s meet and greet is not permitted. You can record your own, but if it takes place alongside another booked guest, ask for that guest’s consent first.
Presentations and private events
Streamers can watch presentations and interviews with their audiences, provided they do not interrupt or disrupt the convention. Talking during developer talks is prohibited. You can record your reaction during the main show presentation, but do not block nearby attendees’ views or record people who do not want to appear.
The VIP Dinner, Ultra VIP Dinner and ExileCon After Party must not be streamed. Camera arms should also be kept from getting in other people’s way throughout the event.
Grinding Gear Games may ask someone to end a stream if the code is breached. Continued non-compliance can lead to removal from ExileCon.
