Today the World’s largest digital festival, DreamHack, is extremely excited to announce that we will be hosting the first ever DreamHack event outside of Europe, with DreamHack Austin officially happening from May 6-8th, 2016 at the Austin Convention Center.
According to the CEO of DreamHack, Marcus Lindmark, there might have a second DreamHack in North America next year too:
It’s been our ambition to expand to North America for a very long time, and today we are thrilled to get the ball rolling by announcing a date and venue for our first event. It’s our ambition to host a second event in another region of North America in 2016 as well, we are very excited to keep ramping things up.

That's pretty awesome. They must be doing really well. Seattle please. xD

PHILADELPHIA. It's still 2 hours from me, but it's pretty much the biggest "hub city" I can get to besides NYC.
|
I know where it will not be... western Canada
I guess somewhere in new England or again Esport-City Toronto.

DH Vancouver... the dream event. If it's in Toronto again I might shoot someone.
Also... HYPEEEEE

What happened to Robert Ohlin? Anyone know?
Will you shoot someone if it's DreamHack Las Vegas?
|
I think that it would have to be somewhere with a very serviceable international airport which basically leaves us with Vancouver, Calgary, and Edmonton.
I'd probably guess Toronto though haha.

Get your fucking dates right. What does 8.7. mean when an European organization announces an NA tournament? 8 of July? 7th of August?
American date system the second most fucked up thing after their shitty imperial units...
|
oh for the love of everything please come to California!!! i really don't think they will but i would be crazy happy, especially if its San Francisco.. !!!!!!!!!!!
|
That awkward moment when I realize Canada is also North America...
#DH is ours!

Please be DH Las Vegas (or somewhere on the west coast), I need a vacation badly and this would be the perfect excuse...
edit: I also highly doubt it's in 2 days.

I assume that means they'll either announce the location in 2 days or it will be August 7th, although it being august 7th sounds too soon
