VALORANT has seen unprecedented success and growth in 2024 with the introduction of a revised two stage system, the new Kickoff tournament at the beginning of the year, the arrival of the Chinese teams in proper fashion with VCT China having its debut year, and so many more changes.

With all that said, the calendar has been revealed to us for the 2025 season, and boy is it exciting. In the press conference today, Leo Faria (Global Head of VALORANT Esports) and Anna Donlon (SVP and Head of VALORANT Studios) delivered the news - Champions 2025 is Europe bound.

Champions Paris 2025

Site of the 2024 Olympics, Paris will play host to VALORANT’s biggest tournament in 2025 with Champions. Moreover, the location of both Masters events have also been delivered - Masters Bangkok and Masters Toronto.

Masters Bangkok is set to be the first of the three, happening in February. In June, Masters Toronto will follow, followed by Champions Paris, either in mid-late September or in October. (More information to follow).

Furthermore, Leo also revealed that Champions 2026 would be based in China and Champions 2027 in Americas. Looks like we're all set for the next few years.
