Riot Games is getting ahead of things and has now revealed the host cities and venues, and the dates for the 2023 League of Legends World Championship. As revealed in a new blog post, the dates, venues, and cities can be found below:
As for why the World Final is set for later than expected, this is because League of Legends is a medal sport at the 19th Asian Games, and Riot wants to support this tournament.
Otherwise, tickets for the annual tournament will start going on sale in July, with Play-In Stage tickets up on July 10, Swiss Stage tickets on July 19, and Knockout and World Final tickets planned for August 2.
