It is indeed centrally located with a great view of the river, though it is fairly tight for space. While we are only accommodating SC2 and CoD, just be mindful of this.

Our key production focus (for spectators etc) will still remain as Sydney. We are pushing the envelope to its limits to make this happen, and will still be focusing on a premium quality TOURNAMENT & STREAM experience.

A higher quality SPECTATOR experience will be available at the Sydney event.
