Sony Is Skipping CES 2027 After 60 Years

Sony is skipping CES 2027, ending a 60-year run at the technology show.

Sony and its affiliates will not exhibit

Push Square reports that Sony has taken part in CES since 1967, when its products appeared at the first show.

A Sony spokesperson confirmed that the company and its affiliates do not plan to exhibit at the January event, according to reporting that cites Bloomberg and Nikkei.

CES 2027 runs January 6 through January 9, 2027, in Las Vegas.

Sony is focusing more on entertainment

Sony says its main business areas are shifting toward “entertainment”, “intellectual property”, and “creation technology”. The company also plans to continue working with the Consumer Technology Association, which owns and operates CES.

Sony already had a smaller presence at CES 2026. The company did not have its traditional standalone booth, while Sony Honda Mobility represented the companies through its Afeela electric vehicle project.

For PlayStation gamers, leaving CES does not mean Sony is leaving gaming. PlayStation remains part of Sony’s entertainment business. The decision changes where Sony presents its broader technology and entertainment work.

Sony has not confirmed a return

Sony has not confirmed whether it could return to CES in a later year. For now, the 2027 show will go ahead without an official Sony or affiliate exhibit.
