EVENT STATUS:NOT CONFIRMED

How We Confirm: SEA becomes a confirmed event once we reach 300,000 signups or two Anchor Sponsors. This threshold proves to venues, sponsors, and partners that we have the community support to make this the largest esports tournament on Earth. Every signup brings us closer to making SEA a reality.

Current Progress:Building momentum...

Theater Qualifier System: Qualifiers through quarter finals are held in 650 local theaters around the world. Semi-finals and finals take place in the host city during the 5-day interactive entertainment festival.

Important: Qualifier Credits are for tournament entry at partner theaters. Destination perks (Expo, Concerts, Conference) unlock for Gold+ tiers. Physical travel to Vegas is separate.

PLANNED VENUE

If we host the SEA Tournament, the current plan is to host it at Allegiant Stadium. We did receive a bid from them, however, nothing is set in stone. Plans can change.
