Rocket League Esports returns to London with the RLCS London Major in June

Esports tournament organizer BLAST announced Monday that the Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) will be returning to Copper Box Arena in London, the second Major of 2024, taking place from June 20-23. A total prize pool of $255K USD has been allotted for the event, according to a release. The last time RLCS was at the Copper Box Arena was at the sold-out RLCS Spring Major in 2022, which saw French esports organization Team Vitality defeat Team BDS in the final.

In addition to taking home part of the total prize pool, teams will be vying for additional RLCS points to secure a spot in the Rocket League World Championship in September.

RLCS Major 2 will be broadcast on Twitch and YouTube from June 20-21, and will host a live audience at the Copper Box Arena for the weekend competition.

BLAST noted in its announcement that tickets go on general sale beginning at 10:00 AM GMT on Friday, March 29, (details on tickets can be found on the official Rocket League esports social accounts). There will also be three presale windows for O2 Priority customers, Live Nation users, and Ticketmaster users—details on that can be found here.
