The International 2024 dates and location have been announced
Developers of Dota 2 have announced The International 2024. Valve has stated that the main event in the world of Dota is returning to Europe, with Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, chosen as the venue, specifically the "Royal Arena". The exact dates of the tournament are not yet available, but it is clear that the 16 best teams in the world will compete in early autumn, in September.
Valve on the format of The International 2024:
War banners are being washed clean of blood stains and scorch marks. Trumpets are being tested for their ability to sound the imminent approach of battle. Lanes are getting swept clean of body parts, and the Ancients are getting a good crack replastering and surface buffing. The forest air itself crackles with anticipation, because we had new forest air shipped in at considerable cost that crackles on command.
The stage is being set, is the point we’re trying to get across here. And why? For The International, returning this September to Europe, where the best Dota teams from around the world will clash for the Aegis in Copenhagen's Royal Arena.
The sixteen participating teams will be a mix of open qualifiers, regional qualifiers, and direct invitations, similar to how invitations worked for the first few years of The International. The invited teams will be announced leading up to the event, and chosen based on team performance during the year.
Valve on plans for 2024 beyond The International:
And there's a lot of performance to consider. This year's calendar is packed, with half a dozen major tournaments already announced and more on the way, including studio and arena tournaments in Europe, Asia, South America, and the Middle East. We even hear rumors Midas Mode might be making a grand return. (The more teams that are eligible to participate in a tournament, the higher our consideration: Cross-regional tournaments generate more useful data than intra-regional tournaments, tournaments with qualifiers generate more useful information than invitation-only tournaments, etc.)
Additionally, the developers of Dota 2 have announced that information regarding tickets for TI 2024 and its schedule will be published in the coming months.
