May 13, 2022

Riot has announced the locations of the next two LAN events of the Valorant Champions Tour circuit.

The Danish capital of Copenhagen has been chosen to host the Masters 2. Set to take place from July 10-24, the tournament will feature twelve teams.

Istanbul, Turkey will then host the Champions. Taking place from September 2-18, the event will feature sixteen teams; ten will qualify through their performance during the regular season and six will enter through the Last Chance Qualifiers to be held in August.

Both events will aim to have a live audience, a first for Valorant events on the international stage.

Haven't Denmark banned Russian VISAs? I wonder how the logistics will work for next masters for CIS if the ban is still in effect
But otherwise its a big W to have crowds after 1.5~ years

Copenhagen is great for CS because the game is really popular over there, VAL is not though. Unless there’s a big casual audience who will attend just because it’s an esport event i don’t see being that crazy.

the reason the choose denmark is because they were the first country in europe to stop considering covid as a risk to society and already lifted all restrictions I believe, also virtually 0 covid cases in 2-3 months so its almost an ideal situation

its always same as per that specific countries time zone for example
both Iceland and Berlin masters 1st match started 3pm local time
3pm Iceland(GMT) was 8:30pm India
3pm Berlin(GMT+2) was 6:30pm India
similarly,
3pm Turkey(GMT+3) will be 5:30pm India
hence it will be 1hr earlier than Berlin and 3hrs earlier than Iceland for all
