Esports Awards to be held in Las Vegas

The seventh Esports Awards will officially take place in Las Vegas, Nevada. In addition, the show renewed existing partnerships with gaming chair manufacturer Secretlab and telecommunications company Verizon.

The 2022 ceremony will take place at the Resorts World Theater in Las Vegas after a three-year stay at Esports Stadium Arlington in Texas. The main event will take place on December 13 along with a number of other events.

Michael Ashford, CEO of Esports Awards: "We couldn't be more excited to start building a legacy with Resorts World Las Vegas. We recognize that these awards are a well-deserved end-of-year celebration and we want to create something that delivers the best in its class experience. Resorts World Las Vegas as a venue is very forward-thinking in attracting top-tier events and seeing the support of esports is very reassuring. Huge thanks to Destination Esports, Resorts World Las Vegas and Hilton Hotels for making this happen."

Secretlab will partner with Esports Awards for activation in addition to sponsoring the Esports Team of the Year award, which was won by the Atlanta FaZe franchise in 2021.

In turn, Verizon will sponsor the ceremony for the third year in a row, naming the Esports Mobile Player of the Year and Esports Mobile Game of the Year categories.
