Nite to
Unite

The Industry
Gives Back

Once a year, the video game industry’s movers and shakers convene for the ESA Foundation’s biggest annual fundraiser, Nite to Unite (NTU). It’s a night to celebrate the many ways in which the industry drives positive change by transforming people’s lives. It's also a night to honor visionaries making a profound difference through video game technology. Last but not least, it’s a night to raise funds in support of scholarships for future game makers and charitable organizations leveraging the power of interactive software.

22nd Annual
Nite to Unite

Date: to be announced

Location: Fairmont San Francisco | 950 Mason Street

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, this year's Nite to Unite (NTU), originally scheduled for March 17, 2020, had to be postponed. The ESA Foundation is currently considering ways that those in the industry can still gather together virtually to celebrate our achievements and raise funds for the Foundation's critical mission. As NTU is a major source of Foundation funding, we are keen to solicit industry-wide participation. We will let you know what our plans are as soon as we make a decision. Until then, we urge everyone to please stay safe and healthy!
