The Location and Schedule

Location

The Major will take place in Mexico with the exact city yet to be confirmed. It will not be open to the public. 

Schedule

As for the dates, the tournament will take place between the 16-22nd of August making it a seven-day event. 

As this is the same length as the prior Raleigh and Paris events, its format is likely to be the same with four initial groups followed by a single-elimination Playoff stage. This means with no lower bracket the grand-final will have no map advantage to either side as we'll have a straight BO5 play out.

This was the schedule for the prior two Six Majors:

• Monday -- Eight group stage openers
• Tuesday -- Four losers' & four winners' matches
• Wednesday  -- Four decider group stage matches
• Thursday -- Press Day 
• Friday -- Quarter-Finals
• Saturday -- Semi-Finals & show matches
• Sunday -- Grand-Final & new season reveal
