A world champion will be crowned at the Kia Forum when VALORANT stars converge this weekend in Los Angeles.
The brightest talents in VALORANT will unite this weekend in Los Angeles, with a world champion to be crowned Saturday night from the famous Kia Forum. After a year of highlight reel aces and last-second clutches, the Champions Los Angeles field has been reduced from 16 world-class squads to the final four.
The Upper-Bracket Final and Lower-Bracket Semifinal (both best-of-three) commence on Thursday, August 24. The Lower-Bracket Final will be our first best-of-five match of the event on Friday, August 25. And on Saturday, Aug. 26, the VALORANT Champions 2023 Grand Final, which will permanently impact careers and legacies.
Ceremony of Inauguration
Before the dramatic conclusion on Saturday, don't miss the Champions Gold Carpet pre-show, which will feature the unveiling of the upcoming VALORANT map. We'll also have some of the biggest personalities in VALORANT, music, and gaming in attendance. This high-profile event will prepare you for the Champions Grand Final like nothing else.
