Currently, there’s a great discussion over the PGL Major Stockholm event. Accordingly, a recent update from Sweden makes the event more possible due to relaxed travel restrictions. Read on as we talk about this new update.
PGL Major Stockholm Update – Patience Pays Off
A couple weeks ago, Sweden as a venue for competitive esports events was not quite available.
So much so, that Dota’s The International event was forced to move the venue from Stockholm to Romania due to this. However, a new update is live – this was celebrated by the CEO for Ninjas in Pyjamas on social media. Take a look:
Esports athletes are now to go under the same travel exemptions as other sports in Sweden. Amazing work by @a_fa9 and the @NIP team, together with the different federations!
Everyone will now be allowed entry for the major. #GONINJAS

Indeed, to reiterate, esports players will now be recognized as other sports.
Bearing this in mind, there’s reason to celebrate. Indeed, although we’re awaiting confirmation, the decision is definitely in favour of remaining the same.
Accordingly, we can’t wait to see the event run from October 23rd to November 7th. Do note that the event dates may change though.
Otherwise, with $2,000,000 on the line, it’s an incredible event which looks to take CS:GO to the next level.
We’ll keep our eyes peeled for more updates.
