DreamHack announces 2020 Open stops in Leipzig and Anaheim

The two stops will be the first Challenger events in the recently-announced ESL Pro Tour.

DreamHack has revealed the first two Open stops of 2020, with the first seeing the tournament organizer return to Leipzig, Germany, for the first time since 2017, and the second taking place in Anaheim, California. This will be the first event to take place in the North American city since the ECS Season 2 Finals at the end of 2016.

DreamHack Open Leipzig is set to run from January 24-26, while Anaheim will take place a month later, from February 21-23. The two stops will be the first Challenger events in the ESL Pro Tour circuit, a global CS:GO circuit featuring over 20 events that will feature a combined prize pool in excess of $5 million.

The current ESL Pro Tour calendar points towards four other Challenger stops taking place towards the latter half of 2020, although dates for other events may yet be revealed.

DreamHack Rotterdam (October 18-20)
DreamHack Atlanta (November 15-17)
DreamHack Winter (November 29-December 1)
