Announced on January 29th during Major 1, the event is the first time FaZe Vegas will operate Call of Duty’s largest esports tournament. The Michelob Ultra Arena holds a capacity of 10,000 fans and is directly connected to the Mandalay Bay Resort.
The venue is no stranger to hosting high-profile esports events. In 2022, the Michelob Ultra Arena hosted multi-title fighting game event Evo. The event was the first Evo to take place following the COVID-19 pandemic
In addition to revealing the venue and dates for CDL Champs, FaZe Vegas also shared that tickets are available to purchase on January 30th. Fans can earn pre-sale access beginning at 10 AM CST (4 PM GMT), with general sale starting at 3 PM CST (9 PM GMT).
This year’s edition of CDL Champs is the second time the event has taken place in Las Vegas. In 2023, Activision hosted the tournament at the Thomas & Mack Centre, which saw the New York Subliners take victory.
Call of Duty League In 2026
2026 marks the sixth year of Call of Duty’s franchised esports league, which has continued to show signs of growth. 2025’s event became the most-watched tournament of the franchised era, recording a viewership peak of over 350,000 during the Grand Final.
This year, the CDL returns to Europe with two events taking place in the UK and France in March and June, in addition to the two Majors occurring in the United States.
Champs will see the top eight franchises from the regular season competing in a double-elimination bracket to become champions. FaZe Clan is no stranger to Champs success, having won the event in 2021.
