Oakley Returns as an Official Partner of Esports Awards

The Esports Awards announced Friday that it will continue its partnership with Oakley for another year. The sports performance and lifestyle eyewear brand will now serve as an official event partner of the 2023 ceremony.

Financial terms of the partnership were not disclosed.

Oakley will also return as supporting partner of the Esports Awards Open, a celebrity pro-am golf tournament, and the company’s Global Head of Esports and Gaming Partnerships Felipe Formiga will join the Esports Awards panel. The panel is made up of industry professionals who help judge award nominations from the esports community across all six awards group categories: entertainment, industry, creative, pro, on-air talent, and collegiate.

The Esports Awards 2023 ceremony will once again be held in Las Vegas in December.
