Portal Dexerto, citing sources close to the company, published information that the organizer of the spring major may become BLAST. The competition is expected to take place in mid-May. Thus, this will be the first event of this scale for BLAST, which started organizing CS:GO tournaments about six years ago, then under the name RFRSH Entertainment.
Over the years, BLAST has held major tournaments in many countries, and CS:GO fans appreciate it for its high level of organization and broadcast quality. The most famous event of the Danish company is a series of tournaments BLAST Premier, the finals of which are held in the presence of tens of thousands of spectators.
It is still unclear where exactly the major will be held, but the same sources say that Paris is being considered as a priority option. If this information is correct, the event will be the first major to be held in France. In a recent interview, BLAST Managing Director Charlotte Kenny mentioned that the company will hold a major «when the time is right». She noted that they have always been interested in organizing an event of this magnitude and will do everything they can to meet the high expectations of the community.
