The SEA crowd is back: ESL One to be hosted in Bangkok

As a seasoned gamer with roots deeply entrenched in Southeast Asia’s vibrant gaming community, I can confidently say that the upcoming ESL One Bangkok is shaping up to be an unforgettable event. The return of LAN tournaments to our region, known for its passionate crowds, is a long-awaited development. The prospect of witnessing twelve of the world’s best Dota 2 teams battling it out for a million-dollar prize in the heart of Bangkok is nothing short of exhilarating!


Nothing is better than a big return: ESL One is bringing Dota 2 back to SEA with their next million-dollar event in Bangkok!

Following The International, a fresh season for the ESL Pro Tour will commence, packed with two significant tournaments. Firstly, we’ve been anticipating DreamLeague S24 in October, which will maintain its popular online structure. In addition to this, ESL One is making its way to Bangkok on December 13-15, and more details about the LAN event have been disclosed!

As a gaming enthusiast, I can’t hide my excitement for the upcoming ESL Dota 2 tournament. With a whopping $1,000,000 on the line, it’s no wonder it’s the standard budget for these events. But what truly gets the whole community buzzing is the return of LAN events to Southeast Asia – a region famed for its fiercely passionate crowds. To top it off, this event marks the biggest Dota 2 LAN in Thailand yet, outshining even the 2019 GESC Minor that took place in Bangkok

The selected venue for the ESL One Bangkok is the Royal Paragon Hall, located inside the Paragon Shopping Center. For the ticket pricing, there will be two tiers: Ranks and Infield. If you want to secure a seat, the tickets will be available for purchase starting Sep. 5 at 18:00 IST / 5:30 PDT.

  • “Infield” is the best ticket you can get, and it costs 76.81 USD*. Thus, it already includes a priority pass for seating, giveaways, and interactions with the event’s hosts.
  • “Ranks” is the basic tier. Therefore, it does not include front seats, nor giveaway priorities. The cost for the three-day pass will be 49.16 USD*
  • However, both tickets will get you access to general access for the signing sessions. For this reason, if you want priority access for this activity (and extra perks like a goodie bag and a premium badge), you can pay an extra 46.09 USD*. Also, this add-on will be available for both tiers.

Originally priced in Thai Baht and then converted to US Dollars, it is advisable for you to verify the latest ticket price and perform your own currency conversion
