"DreamHack creates a space for our community to connect, explore, win, play, and be themselves through an interactive, gaming lifestyle experience," said Marcus Lindmark, President DreamHack, SVP Project and Event Operations at ESL Gaming. "Gaming brought, and kept, us together during difficult times, so I cannot begin to share how excited we are to be back in person with our community. It seems very poetic that our first in-person festival in the U.S. will happen in the same city as our last festival before the pandemic two years ago. We cannot wait to again share the DreamHack experience with Anaheim."

"Anaheim is ready to re-engage and reenergize DreamHack attendees during their first in-person experience in two years," said Junior Tauvaa, Chief Sales Officer, Visit Anaheim. "Attendees can visit our destination with confidence knowing their health and safety is our priority while we strive to provide them with unparalleled service in a world-class venue."
