Dear League of Legends enthusiasts , get ready for a historic event! The pinnacle of the 2024 LoL Esports season, the Worlds Final, will take place on November 2, 2024 in the United Kingdom, at the extraordinary O2 arena in London.

The LoL World Cup 2024 final will be held at the O2 arena in London
The O2 arena, the second largest venue in the UK, has been the scene of many memorable events, from concerts by Adèle, Beyoncé, and U2 to major sporting events such as NBA matches and the final of the ATP tennis season. With its imposing dome and its symbolic place in the London landscape, the O2 arena is the ideal location to host an event of the stature of the LoL Worlds.
The last time the UK played a major role in LoL Esports history was in 2015, when it hosted the World quarter-finals at the SSE Arena, Wembley, now renamed OVO Arena Wembley. The enthusiasm for the return of an event of this magnitude is palpable.
For all fans wishing to experience this historic event, details on when tickets will go on sale for the final will be announced later in 2024.

Some key information on the O2 Arena...
The O2 Arena in London is an iconic, multi-functional venue located in the center of the Greenwich Peninsula entertainment district. Opened in its current form in 2007, the O2 Arena is the second largest indoor venue in the UK, second only to the Manchester Arena. In 2008, it was the busiest music arena in the world.
Nicknamed The Dome due to the domed structure under which it was built for the Millennium Exhibition, the O2 Arena is a true architectural gem. With a diameter of 365 meters and a height of 52 meters, it is one of the largest buildings in the world in terms of volume. Sponsored by O2, a subsidiary of Virgin Media O2, the arena has hosted major events and performances from renowned artists.
The O2 Arena has seen legends such as Prince, who performed a series of 21 sold-out concerts there in 2007. Michael Jackson had also planned a 50-show residency in 2009, which was canceled following his death. Since 2013, it has hosted C2C: Country to Country, Europe's largest country music festival. Major sporting events, such as the ATP World Tour Finals and major boxing matches, have also taken place in this arena.
The O2 Arena has also been the scene of historic moments, such as JoJo Siwa's concert in 2019, making her the youngest artist to perform there, or the Shields versus Marshall boxing match, the first boxing event female headliner at a major venue in the UK.
