The brightest stars in VALORANT will converge this weekend in Los Angeles, with a world champion to be crowned Saturday night from the legendary Kia Forum.
After a year of highlight reel aces and last-second clutches, the field of Champions Los Angeles has whittled from 16 world-class squads to the final four.
The action begins on Thursday, Aug. 24, with the Upper-Bracket Final & Lower-Bracket Semifinal (both best-of-three). Friday, Aug. 25, will see our first best-of-five of the tournament in the Lower-Bracket Final. And on Saturday, Aug. 26, the match that will change careers and shift legacies forever -- the VALORANT Champions 2023 Grand Final.
Opening Ceremony
Before the climactic ending on Saturday, make sure to tune into the Champions Gold Carpet pre-show for the debut of the next VALORANT map. We'll also bring together some of the largest names in VALORANT, music, and gaming. This marquee event will prepare you for the Champions Grand Final like no other.
