All major events and tournaments

2024 is set to be another big year for esports, and if you want to make sure you catch all of the action, we’ve listed every major tournament and event across as many games as possible to ensure you see every big moment.

We’ve already seen some major events in 2024, from CS2’s IEM Katowice to Call of Duty’s CDL Stage 1 Major. The good news, however, is the best is still yet to come, with more competition, more tournaments, and more trophies to be won.

Staying across everything that’s happening can be tricky, though. That’s why we’ve put together a calendar detailing every major championship occurring across as many games as possible. We’ll be updating this article as more tournaments are announced too, so make sure to keep checking back.
