Garena is preparing for an exciting competition with 18 teams battling it out for a significant prize pool. This article will give you all the details you need to know about the upcoming tournament.

Free Fire World Series (FFWS) SEA 2026 Spring: Schedule and Format

The event happens in two main parts, but the first part is broken down into several steps. The Knockout Stage begins on April 24th and runs until May 17th, 2026. This stage has two phases: the first phase will last two weeks and feature 36 matches played over six days.

The competition will begin with a round-robin schedule, where each team plays 24 matches. After the first week, teams will be split into groups based on their performance and compete for another two weeks. The top 12 teams will move on to the Grand Finals, while the bottom six will be eliminated.

The Grand Finals will take place on May 30th and 31st. On May 30th, teams will compete in six matches to earn points for the Champion Rush Headstart. The following day will be played in a Champion Rush format, and the team with the most points overall will win the championship trophy.

Where to watch the FFWS SEA 2026 Spring

I’m so excited for the esports event! It’s going to be awesome because they’re combining both in-person matches with online ones. That means we can either go and experience the energy live, or watch everything unfold online, which is super convenient. If you want to be there in person, you’ll need to keep an eye on the event’s official social media, like their YouTube channel, for updates and details.
