Blast has announced a multi-year partnership with the Singapore Tourism Board to host four arena esports events in Singapore over the coming years following the sellout of the Blast Premier World Final in 2024.
“Blast has major global ambitions as a leader in esports and competitive entertainment and we are delighted to expand our partnership with Singapore,” said Blast Chief Business Officer Leo Matlock. “We are incredibly excited to be making a long-term commitment to the region through this new partnership with the Singapore Tourism Board. Singapore is already recognised as a hub for international sports and entertainment — this partnership will help ensure it becomes a leading destination in the global esports calendar, and is one of our biggest commitments to a market.”
Blast is set to return to Singapore in November for the Dota Slam Singapore, the company’s first-ever Dota 2 arena event with a $1 million prize pool. Singapore joins a global calendar that includes London, Lyon, Austin, Hong Kong and Rio.
“Following the success of last year’s Blast Premier World Final, we are delighted to forge this new multi-year partnership with Blast that anchors a regular pipeline of esports events in Singapore and strengthens our position as Asia’s leading esports and entertainment hub” said Jean Ng, assistant chief executive, experience development group at the Singapore Tourism Board. “Large-scale international esports events create significant opportunities for our tourism ecosystem, benefiting local businesses and growing the local events and esports industries. We look forward to welcoming players and fans from around the world to Singapore this November and in the years ahead, where they can experience our vibrant culture and diverse offerings beyond the arena.”
