The League of Legends World Championship grand final will take place in London's O2 Arena.
The 2023 grand finals of the League of Legends World Championship is currently taking place in the Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul, South Korea between the LCK's T1 and the LPL's Weibo Gaming. During the opening ceremony of the Worlds 2023 grand finals, it was announced and confirmed by LoL Esports that the O2 Arena in London, England will play host to the League of Legends World Championship grand finals next year.
This will be only the second time that Worlds will be taking place in England with the last happening back in 2015, which also took place in other European cities like Paris, Brussels, and Berlin. And given that the Mid-Season Invitational earlier this year was held at the Copper Box Arena in London, it's no surprise as to why they would want to go back.
The grand finals of Worlds 2024 is expected to take place during the fall of next year, which will probably be around the same time as Worlds 2023, provided nothing goes wrong on a global scale. The O2 is the UK's second-largest seating capacity venue that has been known to host some of the biggest names in entertainment like the country's own Adele and U2 as well as the queen of pop, Beyoncé.
Ticket sales for the Worlds 2024 grand finals, which is expected to take place on November 2, will be announced at a later date next year. With the O2 being the host for the grand finals, one can expect other cities and dates to be announced soon.
