In 2024, and for the first time in Rainbow Six Esports' history, the Six Invitational will be hosted in Brazil. We're excited to reveal that the Six Invitational 2024 is set to take place in São Paulo, Brazil at the Ginásio do Ibirapuera from February 13 to 25.

The Six Invitational is our most iconic and renowned event of the year, providing the Siege community with an opportunity to come together and celebrate the game, discover details for the upcoming Year 9 and get the opportunity to watch the World Champions crowned in front of a packed out arena.  

The event is the pinnacle of the competitive year in BLAST R6, rounding off 12 months of fierce competition with the world's best 20 teams competing for the most prestigious trophy in Rainbow Six Siege and the lion's share of a $3,000,000 total prize pool. 

The Six Invitational 2024 will be split across three phases over two weeks of competitive Siege action in São Paulo. Culminating in a much-awaited final weekend in front of a live audience at Ginásio do Ibirapuera, the best teams will give it their all to be crowned this year's World Champions.
