Red Bull Home Ground lands in Berlin in November

Red Bull Gaming announced Wednesday that Red Bull Home Ground, a pro Valorant off-season invitational, will return in 2024 in Berlin, Germany.

Red Bull also announced that AGON by AOC will return as the competition’s official monitor partner for 2024, providing gaming monitors for competitors. Blacklyte will serve as the official gaming chair partner and Jeep has signed as a partner for the first time. Financial terms of these partnerships were not disclosed.

Red Bull Home Ground will see eight of the top Valorant teams competing across four days—Nov. 20-23—at the Arena Berlin (the Arena Berlin can seat around 2,500 people).

Those eight teams include last year’s winners and Two-Time VCT Global event winners Fnatic, as well as Karmine Corp, and Germany-based FOKUS Clan. The remaining slots will be determined by winners of US, APAC, and EMEA qualifiers as well as the two best teams from the Play-in stage. In-country qualifier events are open to all in the US & Canada, Japan, Netherlands, Germany, Turkey, Belgium and Chile.
