If you're going to be joining us in the arena to watch it, here's some things you may want to know before you travel.

Time for doors opening

With a weekend full of Counter-Strike action, you're going to want to make sure you're already comfortable in your seat when it all kicks off.

• Friday - 3PM
• Saturday and Sunday - 2PM

Player signings

Across the weekend there will be loads of fantastic opportunities to meet your favourite players, but just make sure you get in the queue on time as player signings will be done on a first come, first served basis.

Player signings will be possible on both Saturday and Sunday, with signing sessions taking place at 4PM and 7PM.
