With the HCT Fall Season wrapping up last weekend, there’s been a lot of discussion around where the next tour stop will be. We’re extremely excited to announce that it will stop right here in Philly at our very own Localhost Arena!
The NSG team has worked tirelessly to make this happen ever since we hosted the $5k Brotherly Brawl at Localhost back in April, which was our first large-scale Hearthstone event. That was just a taste compared to what’s in store this December.
The Hearthstone Championship Tour is coming to the east coast! We’re joining up with @N3rdStGamers to bring the show to the Localhost Arena for #HCT Philadelphia, December 14-16! ????️
Registration opens Oct 27th 10AM EDT!

Excellent News for Philadelphia
The Hearthstone World Championship is the largest Hearthstone tournament in the world, where 16 players from around the globe come together to duel for a share of the $1 million prize pool and the title of World Champion. The HCT stop in Philadelphia will host up to 128 players battling it out for a piece of the $15,000 prize pool and precious Hearthstone Competitive Points.
In 2017, the HCT spanned six continent and 155 countries. This December will mark the first time that the HCT has stopped in Philadelphia.
Registration for the event opens at 10:00 AM EST on Saturday, October 27th. Players can register for free on Lobby.gg while spectators can buy a ticket at the door for $15 at the door. You’ll want to get there early, though, because seating will be limited.
