Denmark is one of the great Counter-Strike strongholds in Europe and has a long and successful history with star players and teams. While the Danes have hosted major Esport events such as the BLAST Series on many occasions, they have yet to host a Counter-Strike Major in the country despite their history.
The 24 best Counter-Strike 2 teams will compete in Copenhagen in 2024 for the Major crown and prize money of 1.25 million US dollars.
