2026 CDL Championship Weekend Set for Michelob Ultra Arena

The Call of Duty League (CDL) has revealed that the Call of Duty League Championship Weekend 2026 will be held at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, with FaZe Vegas taking on the hosting duties.

Situated within the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, the versatile Michelob ULTRA Arena can accommodate between 10,000 and 12,000 spectators, depending on the setup. This marks the first time FaZe Vegas will host the championship and manage production, backed by its array of sponsors and partners.

The CDL Championship last took place in Las Vegas in 2023 at the Thomas & Mack Centre. The 2025 championships were held in the Waterloo Region, just outside the Greater Toronto Area, making it the first Call of Duty esports event to be hosted outside the U.S.

FaZe Vegas has also announced a presale for championship weekend tickets; fans who registered at fazevegas.com received early notifications about the presale launch. The presale began at 10 AM CST, with public sales starting at 3 PM CST.

In September 2025, the CDL unveiled its competitive roadmap for 2026, indicating that CDL Major I will occur in Dallas (hosted by Optic Texas), followed by Major II at DreamHack Birmingham from March 27 – 29, Major III in Atlanta, Major IV in Paris, and the Championship Weekend in Las Vegas.

FaZe Vegas is a collaborative effort between Atlanta Esports Ventures, which holds the CDL slot, and GameSquare Holdings, the owner of FaZe Esports. This new identity for Atlanta FaZe was established at the end of 2025 when the team relocated to its new host city.
