League Worlds 2026 Host City Just Got Confirmed
Riot confirmed the 2026 World Championship host venues this week — and the multi-city format is the most ambitious Worlds run yet.
Group stage runs in Madrid (October 1-11). Quarterfinals and semifinals split between Tokyo and Seoul (October 17-25). Grand finals at the Tokyo Dome on November 1. Capacity for the final venue is 55,000.
Multi-city format is partly logistical and partly strategic — the LCK and LPL fan bases get high-stakes matches in their home regions.
The Bytes Take
Madrid, Tokyo, Seoul. Three cities, three regions, peak Worlds storytelling. Tokyo Dome final is the can’t-miss esports event of 2026.
