The Esports World Cup 2026 CS2 Grand Final will now take place at Accor Arena on August 23, 2026, following overwhelming demand. Tickets for the original venue, Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, sold out quickly, prompting organizers to move the final to the larger Accor Arena.

The CS2 tournament at EWC 2026 runs from August 19 to 23, 2026, with a $2,000,000 prize pool. Group stage and playoff matches will still be held at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, while the Grand Final will be the only match at Accor Arena. Additional tickets for the final are now available.

The venue change ensures more fans can attend the high-stakes final. The tournament features top teams competing for the championship title and a share of the substantial prize pool.

“You sold it out so we made it bigger,” Esports World Cup 2026 organizers said.

The move to Accor Arena reflects the growing popularity of the CS2 tournament at EWC 2026, with fans eager to witness the culmination of the event.
