PGL hosting the Stockholm CS:GO Major in 2021 – When will it take place?
As of right now, the dates for the PGL Major are from the 23rd of October till the 7th of November in 2021. With the pandemic, anything can happen, so do take these dates with a grain of salt. However, be sure that if it does take place, all safety conditions and measures are going to be a priority to ensure the healthiest and safest atmosphere possible.
Prize Pool
The PGL Major in Stockholm will consist of the largest prize pool that Counter-Strike has ever seen. PGL announced that the teams competing at the Major will fight for a total of $2,000,000 in prize pool.
This is what CEO of PGL, Silviu Stroie had to say about the announcement:
“First of all, my colleagues and I are passionate fans of CS. We grew up and watched this game getting bigger and bigger, just at the same pace as our development as a company. We have timeless memories with our past Counter-Strike shows, and, honestly, we owe a lot to this game, as players and as a company. Our goal is to celebrate the game in the best way possible, and we will work hard for this”

The Stockholm PGL Major will be the third major that PGL will be hosting. As they have previously organised Cluj-Napoca 2015 and Kraków 2017. We’re all eager to witness another event full of spectacular Counter-Strike, and with so many teams improving over the course of last year, we just cannot wait to see which team will take the trophy home!
