ESL Challenger to return to Melbourne in April 2023

Esports company and tournament operator DreamHack has officially announced a gaming festival in Melbourne. The event will also host the ESL Challenger at DreamHack Melbourne 2023, which will be held from 28 to 30 April 2023.

After the resounding success of our first DreamHack, we were keen to bring the event back to Melbourne as soon as possible and at the same time take this opportunity to reschedule the festival to a more convenient time in the Australian gaming calendar. The DreamHack team both here and abroad have been thrilled with how the community has come together in Melbourne in 2022 and are already hard at work planning how we can make April's festival bigger and more memorable for gamers and we can't wait to share some more over the next few months.

Recall that earlier the tournament operator ESL published a competition plan for 2023, but did not disclose the venue for its ESL Challenger #52 tournament, scheduled for April. Now the organizers have finally decided on their plans.

Melbourne has already hosted the ESL Challenger series championship in September. The Brazilian team paiN Gaming became the winner of the tournament, having beaten Imperial Esports with a score of 2:1 in the grand final.
