The Northern League of Legends Championship (NLC) has today announced its LAN finals event for the NLC Spring 2025 season will be taking place in Denmark.

The K.B. Hallen Arena in Copenhagen will play host to the upcoming season’s LAN finals event on the weekend of May 31 and June 1.

This event will be known as ‘Leagues Disrupt’, and will feature the 2025 Arozzi NLC Spring Split lower bracket final and grand final, as well as various performances and entertainment (to be confirmed), plus co-streamers on-site to stream and make content around the event.

While organisers have told Esports News UK this will be a standalone event that isn’t 100% targeted at the NLC, you can expect the NLC to play a big role in the program.

And initial response to the event has been strong. More than 5,000 spectators are expected to fill the hall in Copenhagen, where the audience – in addition to the matches of the NLC tournament – can look forward to a packed program of streamers, live music acts, and on-stage surprises throughout the two-day festival.

The event is organised by Danish company Leagues Media, which has acquired the rights to the largest regional League of Legends tournament in Europe for the next three years. The finals weekend alone is expected to draw hundreds of thousands of viewers from around the world.

NLC tournament organisers Leagues Media sent the following event blurb to Esports News UK:

“Experience the NLC Finals like never before—legendary teams, iconic players, and epic performances live at K.B. Hallen, Copenhagen, this late May. Dive into Riot’s universe at the first-ever Leagues Disrupt event, where top-tier esports meets unforgettable entertainment.”

Christian Henriksen, CEO of Leagues Media, added: “We knew there would be great interest in Leagues Disrupt, as the event is called, but we’re still overwhelmed by the huge response during our pre-sale. We’re seeing not only Danes, but fans travelling in from all across Northern Europe.

“League of Legends is the world’s biggest game, and gaming today is a central part of youth culture – on par with music, street sports, and everything in between. That’s why Leagues Disrupt is more of a live entertainment experience than a pure gaming event. It’s entertainment 2025-style – big screens, lights, sound, jaw-dropping moments, and a cozy vibe all in one.

“In addition to a sold-out KB Hallen, we expect up to half a million viewers tuning in over the weekend. It’s shaping up to be a massive weekend with an electric atmosphere.”

The news of course comes after the NLC Winter 2025 LAN finals took place at Confetti X in Nottingham, UK, at the start of this month, with Los Ratones winning and the final drawing 360,000+ peak viewers, thanks to Caedrel’s co-streaming.

An NLC and LEC finals watch party also took place at The Nest at Notts County Football Club, with Los Ratones meet and greets and a League of Legends quiz also featuring at the event.

Teams have started to reveal their rosters for the NLC Spring 2025 Season, which gets underway in a few days on April 2nd, as they will compete for a place at the finals in Copenhagen in just over a month’s time. For example, The Ruddy Sack’s Spring 2025 NLC roster sees the return of two of the org’s previous players.

Leagues Media is a Danish-owned media and technology company that holds the rights to the NLC – Northern League of Legends Championship. The NLC is a regional league for League of Legends teams in Northern Europe and is part of the official European Regional Leagues (ERL) system under Riot Games. Leagues Media owns the international rights to host, broadcast, and sell advertising for the tournament and related events.
