In 2011, 2014 and 2019 the Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship took place in Europe.
As a strategic business partner of Konami for their European gaming events, Fanfinity was responsible for the popular events' hospitality and live production.
During the World Championship 2019, players and spectators from all over the world gathered in Berlin for a unique experience and live spectacle.
Players have been spoiled with a hospitality experience, starting with a personalized pick-up at the airport. Included in their program was a city discovery tour, a visit to the gaming museum, lots of Yu-Gi-Oh! fun , and of course the World Championship tournament itself.
Over two days, players battled to make their way to the finals in Duel Links or the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game , in multiple categories.
Besides the tournament itself, this event is an important moment to gather the industry partners of Konami, for which we’ve set up multiple meeting & networking activities.
Last but not least, there were +1.000 spectators enjoying the finals & award show, brought in an impressive live setting. In the meantime, a multiple of that watched the live stream from home.
