Last time Paris hosted the world championship was in 2019 for the finals between G2 and FPX.
The League Of Legends World Championship is set to return to Paris, sources tell Sheep Esports. Esports News UK had previously reported that the city could host a stage of the tournament. However, our sources now confirm that Paris has been selected as the venue for the semifinals of this prestigious competition.
A significant five years after G2 Esports suffered a defeat at the hands of FPX in the Worlds grand finals, Europe is once again set to welcome the pinnacle of League of Legends competition. This time around, the finals are earmarked to take place in London, sources tell Sheep Esports. Reports from Esports News UK suggest that the O2 Arena might be the chosen venue for this grand occasion.
France had the privilege of hosting the League of Legends European Championship finals earlier this year, which took place in Montpellier. It comes as no surprise to see France emerge as a favorable host for these events, given its substantial and passionate fan base. Back in September, Karmine Corp organized their own esports event, KCX3, which drew an impressive audience of nearly 30,000 fans.
As for the earlier stages of the competition, it's still uncertain which locations in Europe will be selected to host these matches.
