Rainbow Six Major reveals USA and Italy as locations for 2027
Ubisoft has revealed the Rainbow Six Major locations for 2027, with Italy hosting the May tournament and the United States hosting the November tournament. The official Rainbow Six Esports account confirmed both countries today, November 14.
The announcement came between the semifinals of the BLAST R6 Major Osaka, during the Japanese tournament's penultimate day. Ubisoft confirmed the host countries but did not name the cities.
Italy will host the May 2027 Major
The first Rainbow Six Major of 2027 will take place in Italy in May. The official announcement gives the month and country, with no exact tournament dates or venue.
Milan is a possible host city based on the announcement artwork since the city was identified in the image, but Ubisoft has not officially confirmed it.
United States will host the November 2027 Major.
The second Major will take place in the United States in November 2027. As with Italy, the official post does not specify a city, venue, or exact dates.
The announcement artwork points to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, according to Team aAa's identification of the skyline. Pittsburgh should still be treated as an unconfirmed city rather than an announced destination.
Six Invitational comes before the 2027 Majors
Before either Major, São Paulo will host the Six Invitational from February 1 to 14, 2027. The portion open to spectators will take place at Suhai Music Hall from February 12 to 14.
The Osaka Major runs until November 15, with its playoffs at ATC Hall and a $600,000 prize pool. Teams are competing for points toward qualification for the São Paulo championship.
