  • OPL Split 1 Final – April 5, tickets on sale Tuesday 29 March.
  • International Wild Card Invitational (IWCI) – Date TBC
  • Mid Seasonal Invitational (MSI) – Date TBC
  • OPL Grand Final – August 13

“We look forward to working with Hoyts and extending our Esports viewing experience to the big screen for our players. Throughout the year, players will now be able to attend community cinema events across Australia and New Zealand to watch local and global Esports broadcasts live amongst friends in an electric cinematic atmosphere that they wouldn’t necessarily experience at home,” said Mark Cox, Riot Games Oceania Marketing Director.

We’ll have more on the screenings as they become available.
