The 2017 League of Legends World Championship grand final between SKT and Samsung Galaxy takes place this Saturday November 4th at 6.30am.
The final is taking place in China but some venues are broadcasting it in the UK – and some a little later so you don’t need to wake up at the crack of dawn.
First up there are two Odeon viewing parties – one in Greenwich in London and the other at Trafford Centre in Manchester. Tickets are £10.
Also in London and Manchester are the Meltdown and Platform viewing parties respectively.
There’s also a viewing party in Glasgow at the University of Glasgow and one in Nottingham’s Alt Gaming Lounge. The latter will also have a LAN tournament with a minimum £500 prize pool.
Last but by no means least, ESL will be hosting a viewing party in Leicester on the same day as the ESL UK & Ireland Premiership final between Excel Esports and Team Singularity.
There are 70 tickets available for the ESL showing, which starts at 8am and includes breakfast! (£5 early bird tickets, £7 on the door if any tickets are remaining).
There will also be goodies from Riot Games available to guests at the viewing parties.
