Game Changers Championship 2026 tickets go on sale August 7
Game Changers Championship 2026 tickets go on sale August 7 for the ten-team event at the Riot Games Arena in São Paulo from October 22 to November 1.
Game Changers Championship 2026 tickets go on sale on August 7 at 1 p.m. BRT through Eventim Brazil. The ten-team VALORANT event runs from October 22 to November 1 at the Riot Games Arena in São Paulo.
Every competition day will have a live audience. Riot has separated standard event days from Finals Weekend, with different prices for the two ticket groups.
Game Changers Championship 2026 tickets and entry times
Tickets for matches from October 22–28 cost R$160. Finals Weekend tickets for October 30 through November 1 cost R$210. Riot’s official sales announcement sets a maximum of two tickets per checkout.
Doors are scheduled to open at 2 p.m. BRT, with the show beginning at 3 p.m. BRT. Buyers should confirm their selected date before payment because the ticket covers a specific competition day rather than the full event.
The Championship will feature ten teams, but the complete field and match schedule were not yet published in the ticket announcement. Riot says detailed scheduling and broadcast information will follow, so any unofficial bracket times remain provisional.
São Paulo follows the 2025 Seoul championship
Team Liquid won the 2025 Championship in Seoul, defeating Shopify Rebellion Gold in the final. Natalia “daiki” Vilela received the event MVP award, giving the 2026 host city a defending champion from its broader Americas ecosystem.
The São Paulo event also follows the Americas LCQ at the same Riot Games Arena on October 14–15. That qualifier determines the region’s final Championship representative, creating a short turnaround before the global event begins.
